Now that this topic has been masticated pretty thoroughly, it should  
be noted that the big gorilla in stabilization (Naiad) has for some  
years sold equipment which it claims will counteract roll while  
anchored.
Naiad is a big company, and they're marketing it. Since they're still  
in business I assume it's not smoke.

See http://www.naiad.com/2003-09SAFlyer.pdf

I like the roll (flume) tank notion. I like passive systems. But for  
some boats (especially large ones), maybe the Naiad system would be  
sensible.
