This video is about the benefits of a self-righting boat.
ADVANTAGES
1. No retrieval
2. You can drive under almost any condition
3. It will make you a better driver. You won't have to worry about flipping over. You will learn more about the limitations of a hull, both in general and specifically for the boat you are driving.
DISADVANTAGES
1: The boat will become slightly more unstable, compared to a regular boat. This is because the weight is mainly distributed on the left side.
2: It will turn better to the right than to the left, especially noticable on the boats without a left turn fin.
3: The boat will lean to the left when it lies still in the water.
