    Less about concrete and more about the pyramidal "conning tower" I'd suggest.

    Google "45 RB-M Self-Righting" for another test video.

    The Finnish commercial rules require any "patrol" or "rescue" boat to be self-righting.

    It is achieved with a carefully designed deck house and other topside features.

    Cohen and Ghosh did a SNAME paper in 1991 on the 47 MLB that discusses the process in detail.
