More of a question than an answer, but, has anyone ever seen or used a waterbed on a sailboat? Not sure how that would work...

If on centerline it would act as reverse ballast, not good.

PS - the boat filling up with water till it is up to your berth doesn't count as a waterbed!

Jenga is difficult to play, but the added challenge can be fun. Skateboards don't work.

Anyone have a pictures or stories of a waterbed on a boat? I couldn't find any
