Dennis, thanks;I've seen that video, and its actually what got me thinking; 1. whats in the bags?, and 2. how did they calculate how far to heel the boat; (I know it can be done by visually looking at it, but, I don't want to be trying to figure it out while sitting at the bridge!) I appears that they have lines on the bags which they let out and take in to heel the boat, but they seem to have really good control...
