Tom,
 
     Most of the boats displacement is ballast in the keel bulb.

Rich,
Thanks for the blow-by-blow of the sailing you saw today. As I read your post, I could feel the power of those boats, and as I have only sailed for 5 years or so, I still cannot figure out how a sailboat with that much sail area in the winds they sail in can still stay upright. Have fun!
