It's tempting to think that it could be somewhere near the

against the CG, isn't it?
They're the same thing.
By balance arm, I meant the distance between CG and CP. Missing
something, am I?
Well, that'd be a misdefinition. Also, CP really should read CL

But we need some term for what I referred to as the balance arm,
i.e.
the distance between CG and CL (CP).
No we don't, you just defined it.
Bertie
Are you saying that CG and CL are the same?
No.
I definitely remember
reading that they're different.
Excellent first step. Read some more. Make sure it isn't the Sun.
