on the Beech D18s Amphibian.   When in the water, it sits too low and the water comes over the top of the floats.  Which numbers below do I need to change to make the plane sit higher ONLY in the water?

[contact_points]
max_number_of_points = 12


point.0 = 1,   14.0, -6.6, -8.25,  2200, 0, 0.4,  180, 0.25,  3.2, 0.90, 3, 5, 0, 139, 175.2
