....flotation
"Any object with a specific gravity OVER 1.0 will NOT float; it will
have negative buoyancy. Any object with a specific gravity LESS than
1.0 will float, while an object having a specific gravity of 1.0 will
float awash, or have neutral buoyancy."

http://www.bsharp.org/physics/stuff/icebergs.html
"Archimedes Principle of buoyancy states that the upward force on an
object in a fluid is equal to the weight of the fluid that is
displaced. "

And to you, as well...

But do you ever get out to sail? ;-) Great links and I hope you're
maintaining pages that I can peruse when I get a chance (see
cruisenews.net for an example.)

DANG, just lost another couple of hours. Happens every time I check to
make sure that the link's good.

[Heck, when does HE get the time to update? I know he sails, though I
haven't heard much from him this year.]

Yep

Great links

Well some are better than others, but when they contribute to the
knowledge of sailing - they are all good.

Nope, as there are some out there that do that rather well;} ,
contributing here seems to contribute elsewhere - a good thing, an
additional reason for sharing the topics I am researching. Some seem
to confuse the links I provide as making me an authority on a
particular topic or advocating something.

BTW I looked up "sailboat buoyancy" and went through some 800 links
with the posted results. Where the results comprehensive? No. Did I
learn something? Yes

Yes, I knew that, as I believe I was the first person he "told" he was
getting Skylark. Seems he was affected by the obvious love affair we
continue to have with Xan.
