Greg, Thanks for the reply. It is very rolly when at anchor at sea. In calm conditions at the marina it feels good. The sterndrive sits right at the stern, a 200l fuel tank is close to it, and a 100l water tank is roughly in the centre of boat. i am thinking some ballast at the bow to bring the centre of gravity forward as from the half way mark on the boat forward the chimes sit out of the water. Any thoughts. Morry 68

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could give me any help on a problem of stability at rest with my 6.7m Pride sunseeker. It tends to be very rock and roll in the swell even though it has a 5l v8 mercruiser down low on the keel. It seems that the majority of weight is situated in the rear of the boat as it sits high in the bow. Would ballast in the bow bring the boats centre of gravity forward or make it more unstable? I realise they are a deep vee boat which can be less stable however there has to be some solutions. Any feedback would be appriciated. Morry68
