The boat is going to sit on the bottom regardless if you use GWX, "OR" NYGM's model. It may not sit perfectly on the bottom (or it may), that it's not like sitting with the hull in contact to the seafloor is cruicial. What's more, bottoming the boat DOES NOTHING as far as the AI is concerned in terms of evasion.

What id be intrested in is if moving all the crew to the forward compartments stops the positive rise with under both models combined like you suggest it does under GWX's model by itself. The thing is, in GWX, the positive rise is ONLY about 2 meters and it stops rising regardless of what you do with the crew. Im also highly skeptical that moving the crew around effects the trim of a boat in SH3. Theres nothing to suggest that the game's physics is modeled by ubi to that high of a degree.
