[C320-list] Support of the c320 on its keel

[Jeffrey Hare]

Larry,

Same here.  The jack stands are there for keeping it upright.  While there
is weight on the stands, I'd guess it's not more than 10% of the total
weight of the boat on all the stands combined.

   My boat sits on its keel from mid October to mid May every year with jack
stands to keep it stable
