Seeker Knowledge
ballast
ballast is weight placed low in the hull. It counters the force of the wind on the sails and prevents Seeker from being pushed over, beyond her limits. Seeker’s ballast is 12 tons of lead from melted down car wheel weights poured into the bottom of the keels during construction.
