Kelly, this is indeed a small problem. Although it should heel just a little, this one simply is not very accurate. We had some difficulties with the first sloop they did, where the mast and boom were not properly alligned with the longitudal axis of the yacht. The motoryachts are a lot easier, so they cause no difficulties. These guys are experienced renderers but that experienced with the characteristics of a sailingyacht.
The yacht itself on the other hand looks pretty good, so the renderings are good enough for our purposes. I think the scale model will take care of any uncertainties once it's ready.
