Tom,
Brigadoon II (A-275) floats about three or four inches high at the bow.
It has a replacement Westerbeke 21 and a secondary 12 gal. fuel tank aft
but a full water tank, an anchor, a windlass  and 40 ft of chain, plus
other "stuff" forward. I tried to level it with 150 pounds of lead
bricks (from old tire weights) under the cabin sole in the way of the
head and got hardly any noticeable effect, so it is probably not the
different engine.
    George is probably right about the cast iron keel.
    I just re-painted the waterline...
                                                                Gordon
