      They lean and spin but don’t fall over (until the angle is extreme). Flat bottomed decanters require significantly smaller angles before tipping (depending on the contents of the decanter as well as how wide the base is).

      I’ve never been in a sailboat, but I can confirm from experience that the rounded bottom decanters are more challenging to tip than most others I’ve handled.
