I went to the museum itself a few years ago, but I found this which discusses the instability of the ship. https://faculty.up.edu/lulay/failure/vasacasestudy.pdf

Good information, but it doesnt address the claim on the inches. Im only asking as this sounds like some sort of urban legend rather than a factual reason for its failure.
