    Re: Ballast Tube Facts

    Hi all...

    Getting back to the original problem,
    and forgive me if I'm wrong here, but
    with 7.4m loa, weight @ 1.5t, and deadrise @12 deg,
    and it sinks below the waterline chine at rest when
    loaded (normal situation?)

    Its deadset screaming for a deeper VEE.. (read bouyancy).

    NOT ballast tubes...

    Harry..

    I have fished out of a friends barcrusher with flood chamber on keel line. Great system, stable at rest and better ride from the deeper vee on the plane.

    And you arrived at this conclusion how REEDA?

    Just personal experience, or is there a yardstick we can refer to
