Default Unconditionally stable sailboats

Read what you said - its totally false. You claim to have graduated from high
school, but its looking doubtful.

And its all meaningless, since you haven't produced a single case of a cruising
cat capsizing.

In fact, *each* degree of heel on a cat requires _less_ wind than the

degree of heel. cat turn upside down at heel anglesof about 30*.


Totally wrong. You should read what you wrote very carefully.


come on, jeffies. you *claim* to have an associates degree in liberal arts
physics. that mean you *claim* to under the dynamics of wind againt a sail

and
how lever stability decreases as the lever grows shorter (due to the cat
tipping, as in heeling). you also *claim* to understand what "end-plate
effect" means, and most assuredly you *claim* to know that a cat has that huge
wind sail (the tramp, deck, and house) exposed as it tilts.
