I'm sure it had nothing to do with the one-bladed, bent prop on the

Regardless of what one might think of the engines or the test, I
thought it was an interesting demonstration of the low transom effect.
The fact that the boat capsized when about half full of water was eye
catching also.

Does anyone know if it had "level flotation" ?
