Default Re: Bellyup SeaCraft in Fort Lauderdale

I was a first hand witness to a 20-SF that rolled at the dock. It belongs to a friend of mine who left plugs in the scuppers and it swamped after a heavy rain. It was hanging from the dock lines and when one broke it rolled over despite our best efforts to try and hold it upright.

I know that the Coast Guard requires all boats built today to have the capability to float upright and level when swamped. I would be interested in finding out if any of the older boats have this capability.
