[QUOTE="oakchas, post: 420009, member: 18746"] Not trying to argue here. Really... or to take your quote out of context. I'm simply saying that adding weight in wood to a lightweight boat only increases its weight on land and ON the water.. it makes it effectively lighter IN the water. If you were to completely fill one hull with aluminum, and another hull with wood [u]of the same weight[/u], the wooden one would float, the aluminum one would sink. [/QUOTE]
