[C320-list] Information

[Jane & Ken]

Don, on OBUOY #219 the propane tank needed to be filled twice the first year, the last fill was six years ago--your question is similiar to" how long will a tank of gas last?", oh yes, that was the question---depends on how much you use it.
Loading on the boat very much affects the list.  OBUOY has no list.  The mast is verticle, other 320 owners ask why mine is straight--I tell them to shift some weight.
I have the 3 blade prop, but rebuild kits should be available.
Welcome to the 320 owners group, you have a very fine boat that should provide years of fun and there are many projects to make it more useful--A coaming box on the port side was my first project even prior to writing the check.    Ken

As a new 320 owner I have a few questions.
1. From old posts I understand the 320 lists to port. I have found that the Mark II behind me and I both list, his slightly more. Why?  Is this a design problem or is this just the effect of putting all that stuff in the port locker? I know it does not effect the performance,  just curious. 
2. How long does the 2 gal propane tank last? Is there a 5 gal tank that fits? I know my BBQ tank does not.
3. Has anybody had to rebuild  Maxprop blades? Cost? 
Tip: I found a nice cutting board that fit tinside the stove top. I hot glued some drawer liner I got from Costco to one side. Does not silde or rattle on the stove top. Planning to line some of my lockers with the stuff.
