: KF, uses the following acronyms
: LCB - longitudinal center of buoyancy
: CLA - center of lateral area
: LCF - longitudinal center of flotation

: Ross

Ross, I went back, did some homework. I had printed out something off one of the forums. The posters were using the wrong terms and that is where I was getting confused. I had jotted down a note using their acronyms, which were wrong. Now I got it. Both programs use the same terms.

I should have looked closer before asking. My mistake.
Thanks!
