Displacement Plus Ballest ?
Yup, the heavier the boat ,including the ballast, the more
water it''displaces''. "RogueIT" wrote in message oups.com.. .. So displacement is the actual weight in pounds? I quote from wikipedia "Displacement is the actual total weight of the vessel." but I have always tried to make things more complicated than they really are. thanks, RogueIT Scotty wrote: 4550 , the ballast is listed to give you an idea of stability, or ''ballast to weight ratio''.
