Video footage - USCG assists capsized catamaran in Gulf of Mexico
That's about the most unseaworthy looking design I've ever seen. How
stupid to put all that weight forward with so little astern to keep it
from nose diving right to the bottom. The architect who designed that
pile of crap should be taken out and shot.

OK Wilbore I'll bite.
Below the back deck are two main engine that weighs more than the
superstructure, plus 4-6 cement tanks that carry 2000 sacks each, 2-4
liquid mud tanks that carry up to 20,000 gallons, 25,000 gal fuel,
4000, gallons of firefighting foam, ect.ect.ect. The forward structure
is built like it is to keep the decks clear for cargo. She is neither
top heavy, or forward heavy.
