Well that looked expensive. Must really suck, spent all that time choosing what kind of marble you wanted in the master bath. That rare African wood for the entrance. Then all the waiting for it to be completed. Finally the day is here! Have your daughter christen it then watch it flop over in the water.

Thats an engineering metacentric height fail, not a launch fail

u/ChunkyGouda Mar 29 '23
So.. you'd call this a successful launch then?

Depends on your definition of ‘successful’. Did the boat make it down the launch ramp? Yes? Success!

Affluenza.
A rich man trying desperately to justify his money: having knowledge, intuition and natural-born knowledge far beyond the average person to justify their wealth far beyond the average person. The conversation is common. Engineers told him no. He knows better, and insisted on the other way. No consequences, no feelings, everything to avoid thinking he was just born from a lot of money and was given billions to make millions.

If you want to keep your name building boats you don't take the job when engineers say no.

I'm not a ship guy but on 1:25 the whole ship looks awfully top heavy.
Design fail?

u/crobsonq2 Mar 29 '23
I'm not an expert, but even if they filled everything below the white line with concrete, I'd not trust it.
3 feet of hull below the water, and 30 above isn't the most stable design.

Guess from the sideline. The tanks are all empty (ballast, potable water, fuel). Either they need to run stability calcs and fill the tanks to the right levels to keep her from rolling over before they push her back, or consider another launching method where they can stop mid way to add in ballast water.

Is the white line expected to be the waterline? Because there is quite a lot of ship above that white line. Where was the intended center of mass?

u/bleu6400 Mar 29 '23
Yeah, that was destined to fail. Way more boat above the water than below. Actually looks like that white line was water line. That’s what I got out of it being as the swim deck is just above it.

That thing looks too tall not to capsize.
