[C320-list] packing gland & listing to port

[Moondancer5 at comcast.net]

Yes, I admit it! I'm not a boat designer--but wouldn't a tendency to lean to one side mean that there would be a bit more resistance in leaning to the other side? Doesn't that affect any performance on one side relative to the other? (As I said, I don't know boat design, but I'm guessing that since it came up at the last rendezvous I'm not the only one who asked. I'm not trying to start a thing about what seems to be old news here. Just thought that unloaded boats floated upright. They did in my bathtub...  )

Bill,

I agree with the 'get over it' comment..that anyone would think it's a
'design flaw' is due to not understanding boat design...the way to get rid
of it is to put everything in the middle of the boat--batteries, water
tanks, inverters, holding tanks..
