Re: Top heavy?

Roger,

I like both your practical answer and your pictures.

You're cruising my old stomping (sailing) ground.  I do miss the coast.

Tom had recovered well and was looking good last time I spoke to him.
I'll send him the URL to your pictures.

I was kind of hoping that this guy would get the plan that there is a 
whole lot to know before his question could be answered effectively.

A tanker I was 2AE on had a negative GM and a slight ****t on the way 
out.  Every wave made it snap to Stbd, stall a couple of seconds and 
snap back.  It was all a guy could do to stay on his feet.  We did lose 
the fire in one boiler, but the FM lit it off the bricks.  My chief 
called the bridge and told them if they tried to make for sea this way, 
he would shut them down.  - They believed him, but he still had to 
listen to a bunch of griping because we lost two hours while they 
finished correcting the ballast.

Matt
