Weight and displacement question about pontoons and house

houseboatuser said:
Also is there a way to calculate the centre of gravity of the pontoons given the plans? A naval architect I've approached needs the weight of the pontoons (which I've already worked out) and centre of gravity to plug into his model analysis. Thank you all for your advice its much appreciated.

With all due respect to naval architects in general, if a NA needs you to give him the weight of the pontoon, you should not rely on their expertise.
