[C320-list] Cabin table

You're right, I didn't try too hard to lift up on the table to remove
it from the base.

Instead, I removed the current large table top entirely, put it down my
basement (where it's apparently drinking up all of my wine (I know that
my wife and I couldn't be drinking that much)), and made a 2' diameter
cocktail table top to put in it's place.

Having the large table GONE makes the starboard settee much more
usable, and on the infrequent occasions when we eat in the basement,
the cocktail table is pleanty large enough.
