This isn't realistic, everyone knows the 3DBenchy doesn't actually float!

tune your printer and do a temp calibration tower.

other things that will help with this is increasing extrusion width to 150% or so of the nozzle diameter. (this also improves the strength of your parts.)

that said benchy's are horribly unstable and don't float right. but they should float.

Edit: Also, for your nerdy enjoyment
