It would have, had it been afloat. A displacement hull pushes aside an amount of water equal to itself in weight. Once that point is reached the hull is afloat, or neutrally buoyant. In that condition it can roll freely within the limits of its righting moment, which is the force tending to roll the hull upright. For a stable hull design that is afloat the righting moment increases as the degree of roll increases, due to leverage, and reaches a point where it overcomes the momentum of the roll and the hull rolls back the other way.

The problem in this case definitely appears to be that the hull was tipped over before it was being supported by displaced water. In other words, it didn't capsize, it fell off the dolly.

I'm thinking the only way they could have saved it was to ram that hull into the water STAT so it could have a chance to float and right itself, the hesitation did them in, if they had tried to pull it back out at that point it would have tipped anyway. Strange is that we don't get to see the dolly as it enters the water, it's been edited out, I'm sure their insurance co. will want to see it though!.

Egg-fucking-zactly.

You also dropped the "she", thank you. It was making me uncomfortable, because I sometimes read this forum within eyeshot of my girlfriend, who really doesn't tolerate any misogyny.

Eh, it's something I slip in and out of. It's got a thousand years or so of tradition behind it, and wasn't at all misogynistic in origin, imo.

Was starting to like you then you quoted that.

But I should listen to others maybe.

If a 400 dollar phone bill is a flick of the wrist, more power to you I guess.

I don't sweat that bill. I actually gave an iPhone and added to my plan one of my kid's good friends. They have needed to live here because their dad died last year and now their mom has a brain tumor and couldn't afford to live here anymore. School is over now. He becomes a Senior next year and did very well in school.

Don't try to hate me just because I am honest. If everyone was the world would be much better.

I'd never be Donny.


Yea, I was just informing you of what he was referring to, looks like your in decent shape, either the exposure got screwed up somehow but it looks like a lot of UV exposure there, be careful with that. Way back in the '80s I worked at a restaurant and one of the waitress's I still see around town from time to time, she was pretty hot back then and she was always the first to get to the beach and get that "bronzed look" to her, now she is paying a horrific price (looks-wise), she's around the same age as me (mid-'50's) but if you saw her face you would think 65+ easily. Probably didn't help matters much that she was a natural blonde fair skinned girl on top of the excess sun exposure.

She thinks calling a ship "she" is misogyny?
Your girlfriend is everything wrong with the world.

That thing needed a JATO unit on the front for more LOL factor when it went off.

Not like these things arent top heavy.



The Oasis is pretty fun btw, haven't done any in awhile I guess.

I do like the new Princess ones, though.

I am in my 40's already. I have been on or by the beach since I was a baby. My family owned a B&B on the Ft. Lauderdale strip. My skin is naturally bronze/olive.

They said all the soda I drank as a kid would rot my teeth too, only have had one cavity ever and it was just a 'soft spot'.

Am I poor? You had the beat up M3, I had the low mileage one

Just my cell phone bill is $400 a month. 6 iPhones and 18GB data.

Go suck a dick.

But you are poor. What is your net worth after debts?

Spending 400 a month on cell phone bills a month is not a measure of wealth or success.

I haven't had time to pay attention to updates - Alky, still living in the same house that you haven't made a mortgage payment on in a year or so?

Chap 7 babycakes!

However; I am not going into net worth...as many know I am in some litigation.

What's yours since you think that should be something mentioned?

It's been several years. At $2200 a month, it adds up. However; I really wished I saved that money. What did I know?

I am not the one claiming to be "Rich". Liquid net worth, you need to put the cards on the table if you want to claim that you are rich and not poor.

Telling people you are rich because you spend 400 a month on phone bills sounds real ignorant.

Like hoodrat ignorant.

You do live in south florida, a place known for plenty of people trying to front, but they really don't have a pot to piss in and are always dancing on the razor blade of insolvency, trying to avoid creditors like the plague.

I have nothing against rich people with yachts but the dude in the video is a creepy douche bag, straight up. He probably knows this which is why he disabled the comments

I found him odd, too. Sitting there stroking his cat. I mean, I realize that in itself is not odd, but it seemed odd given his subject matter.

Actually you can drink all the soda and enjoy sugary treats as well as long as you brush your teeth afterwards so the bacteria don't have a nice environment to lurk in and attack your enamel later on.

That was a dog, btw. An overly fat Chihuahua-mix, from what it looks like.
