If Klaus is right I should be adding weight to my boat on heavy air days. I've never seen anyone do that
Actually we do this on landyachts and several larger racing Cats and Tris have waterballast in this way.
It is being done; you were just never around to see it. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Water ballast in the transom.... Or what the big Multi sailors like to call them, the 'Oh [censored] Tanks'.
If they had a choice, they would prefer to run without them but are necessary for saftey
