MH1:={GMT} * {WEIGHT} * 0.01745   `0.01745=1 degree in radians)
\Moment to heel one degree
\Calculate moment to heel one degree from GMT system variable:
\   GMT ({GMT:2}) * WEIGHT({WEIGHT:2}) * 0.01745 = {MH1:2} {LUNIT}-{WUNIT}.


\\Alternate method using RAH system variable:
\Calculate moment to heel one degree from RAH at HEEL 1
heel 1
solve trim
\   RAH ({RAH}) * WEIGHT({WEIGHT:2}) = ({RAH*WEIGHT:2})

\\The values will be closer with tighter station spacing.
