According to Archimedes Principle, the weight of the water displaced by the hull of a floating boat equals the total weight of the boat and its contents. If iron nails are removed from the boat, it becomes lighter and displaces less water. That means the boat rises up so that less of its volume is below the surface, while the water level falls because it now displaces less water when submerged.
