You might well gain more by sending all crew up on the bow.

We could blow the stern ballast tanks.....
Being a trig geek, and assuming hull shape counts for nothing, 10
degrees gives you only about 1.' or 1.2 inches. Even 30 degrees dont
give give much.
OTOH, I know that heeling really does work for my boat so hull shape
does matter. I have gotten my boat into places she shouldnt have gone
by heeling her.

Precisely why I'm more interested in this video to free her from the mud,
than I am to get her under that bridge. You could lay her on her side with
these boat balls and drive her off....without the towboat ripoff.
