Bet they wish they hadn't forgotten to put some ballast water in her
before they sent it off!!
You think that was the cause or was it totally unbalanced construction,
with simply too much weight on one side of the ship? I saw a new
40-footer launched once, and it had what I would call a serious list to
one side, maybe five degrees.
I know that I watched them but a steel hulled ship in the water on a
sled just like that and they pumped ballast water into it first.
