that ship is very, very tall. probably up to half it's keel could be weight blocks.

in the editor use the bottom right function to see the ship in world, match it's buoyancy moving it vertically, then add weight block to the bottom until the purple thing (the center of mass) is below the waterline

From that pic (nice ship BTW) it looks like the ship has very little draft?

So you mean that I have to reduce the height of the ship. If I reduce the tower height will it be ok?

For tower I mean the part with sensors

the blocks in this game are very light

your ship is basically 80% out of the water

think of a iceberg, you want most of your ship below the waterline

you can make the tower smaller, yes

but the game has a 'heavy' block you can use to fix ship without ruining their look, it's a square with a dot on it's six sides

you replace all your bottom blocks with that one and your ship will stay upright
