Default Water Ballast

I didn't see any bow tanks in the specs.


All swiftships over 110 ft have bow ballast. Keep them from getting to
airborne.

They make one of the finest hulls, but as you can the the canooks
screwed this one up when they repowered it. It was a much better boat
with the triple 800HP MTU's. Typical cannoks!

You haven't convinced me.

I don't know of any boats with built-in bow ballast
tanks. Do you?


Yes

And it would be downwind if the yacht was fitted with bow tanks.
