Hunkering down: Adding 30 tonnes

[pbmaise]

I am looking for some feedback on this situation.

Picture a big trimaran on moorings facing into 100+ knot winds. A storm surge is about to hit.

When the storm surge lifts the bows high, large areas will be exposed to the wind. Things may get interesting.

I can easily load the bows with tons of water to help prevent both the rise and counter the wind.

1. Ever here of someone doing this?
2. Opinion?

At sea, is the same concept valid but only load two ama evenly?

Have any big trimarans NOT under sail been turtled?

Thanks
