    I’m familiar with both of those words. Ok also familiar with the idea of a lever-arm, and this one is too long for my sense of safety.

      Most of the weight is at the bottom and you have to have the center of mass go outside of the base to tip over.

        The ez dock base is more flexible than say, concrete.

        The centre of mass of the lift only needs to go outside the base of the lift, not the dock.
