contents We study the two-dimensional Ulam's floating body problem for convex domains with perimetral density $σ=\tfrac16$. Using the framework of Zindler carousels, we reduce the problem to a two-dimensional dynamical system associated with an inscribed equilateral hexagon. Our main result shows that the disk is the only convex domain floating in equilibrium in every position for this perimetral density. This provides a new rigidity result for rational perimetral densities in the convex setting.
