It seems like the Queen Elizabeth class metacentric height issue is related to the correct CG for the hull
I found that if I used a "hack" to reduce the hull depth so that it is from the keel to the main deck, rather than the forecastle deck, the center of gravity is at the correct level, and the computed metacentric height (GM) is at 4.13811 ft for the legend displacement and at 5.56843 ft for the deep load displacement. Considering what I am doing, that is pretty good. With the "Spring Style" program, the GM is too low and the Queen Elizabeth class would be unstable (among many other problems).
