Way outside my engineering expertise, but look at pcitires at http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.cruisenewsdaily.com/s-prcrown1-a.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.cruisenewsdaily.com/s-prcrown.html&h=279&w=500&sz=85&hl=en&start=4&tbnid=6MiyiDqMQwEgzM:&tbnh=73&tbnw=130&prev=/images%3Fq%3D%2522crown%2Bprincess%2522%2B%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26rls%3DGGLD,GGLD:2005-08,GGLD:en%26sa%3DG

and you can see, that with a draft of only 26 feet, she is VERY top-heavy.
