Hello Lars
I am new to the forum and I have just read through all threads. My Swan 411 is described by the RORC as having an AVS of 120 and a STIX of 32. My own calculations give an AVS of 130 and a STIX of 44. To be absolutely sure of my figures before I attempt to correct the RORC (Royal Ocean Racing Club) I need to view a GZ curve for the Swan 411 - I used a similar boat for my calculations. I also used a down flooding angle of 100 degrees.
Best regards
David
