Interestingly, some years ago the county council were converting a fishing boat to be a passenger ferry. Without all the fishing gear it needed ballast, a few tonnes of it. The boat bobbed about and rolled in a most sea-sickening manner!
The ballast was replaced as a bulkhead wall about a foot thick and from keel to deckhead. The inertia of this reduced the rate of roll so the ride was much less unpleasant.
Our models often 'bob' about due to lack of inertia and perhaps we could apply the lesson mentioned above to achieve a more realistic motion through the water?
Cheers,
