For those of you who have it, umm... has anyone measured the displacement of
this large hull? In other words, how much does it weigh when empty, and when
full of water (yes, that's close enough for my application). I've built an
NXT-based robotic boat based on the smaller red hulls, but in order to add more
structures (in particular a third motor), it probably needs a little bit more
floatation, & I was thinking of using two of these hulls as an "upgrade".
