too buoyant I'm guessing. fiberglass tends to float...
The density of fiberglass is about 2.6 gm/cc. The density of water is 1.0 gm/cc. Fiberglass does not float; it sinks.
most yachts and small boats are built of fibreglass.
They’re also hollow shells with minimal displacement versus the body of water because of the shape and how forces are arranged/directed.
You can take two equal masses of steel and one with sink and one will float because of the shape. This is how boats work.
And most battleships and aircraft carriers are built of steel. Glad to know you think steel floats.
Aircraft carrier hulls are made of steel, therefore steel floats and won't sink if unbolted from the ship, right?
I dunno then, maybe...
at the very least, it's worth a shot.
...and maybe it'd protect some old bits of history from being scuttled for reefs...(I can dream, can't i?)
