[C320-list] Inspection Port

[Annie Bennett]

The shipwright just cut a very neat hole through the sound proofing.  There
was no obvious increase in engine noise.  I've just emailed a few people who
asked with photos of the hinges and inspection port.  If I missed anyone who
wanted them, please email me again and I will send.
I think I am right in saying that the newest Yanmar Engine's dipstick is
located more towards the front of the engine and is much easier to check
from the front making the side access port unnecessary.
