ABSTRACT:
A stabilizing system for vehicles such as sailing craft, ice craft or racing cars that are periodically subject to lateral forces that tend to heel or roll such vehicles, the stabilizing system having a ballasted member laterally movable and positionable by non binding locking mechanism, the method to use the stabilizing system providing the ballasted member to be moved only by forces present in the environment such as wind or wave energy, centrifugal, gravity and inertia forces, the method allowing surface vehicles to execute turns with their weight more evenly distributed among their wheels or runners and allowing sailing vessels to sail with windward heel and reduced resistance and better balance.
