    Probably would have been more impressed if it were filled more than 1/2 way and if it didn't dump on the second rock. Of course that would probably involve making the bottom heavy to the point of being unweildly. However, I wouldn't mind giving it to a drunk and watching his reaction., especially with a couple of different sized ice cubes in it. :D

    Hi,

    Mount Gay Rum has had a line of these for 4 or 5 yrs out in bars but I have not seen any in use onboard as yet.

    The principle is the same though... all the weight is in the base. :D

    For proper balance John really needed one more in front and in back. I think he worked out the bugs off-camera.

    I like the design of that glass, though not for maritime use.
    It will work well being knocked a bit on a stable platform but will act differently if the platform moves. On a boat it would spill all over the place.
