interDymFoam: the sinking ship smiles

Hello All,
I try the floatingObject tutorial for interDyMFoam with OF2.3.x. I changed the weight so the object sinks. I also removed the initial wave from setFields.
I would expect the 10l object to sink at a weight of 10.5 kg but it does not. The weight has to be approx 12.5 kg. (meshsize?) Then it sinks but the mesh gets all contracted under the object and the simulation crashes.

Can any one help me changing the parameters I need.
