    The photo you've posted is a work of art, not a boat in distress. It's called the "Mary Sue" and this would be a quite unusual position for a sailboat to adopt, if it was holed or had taken on enough water to drag it's bow down that far. The boat would capsize long before this pitchover could occur.

    I don't think anyone with floating floor boards is unaware of any "issues" and likely is working on a solution to their concerns. I still fail to understand what your question(s) or needs might be, in regard to what this forum can offer in response.
