[C320-list] C320 boat list

[millers1 at aol.com]

Allan,
I did, and it just stays in a puddle.  The boat looks perfect from astern, ahead and athwart
ships., even sighting the mast, etc..... she is on her her lines.
As I noted in an earlier e-mail, the PO installed a 3rd, 4D battery (120#) on the starboard side.
With out that weight she may lean to Port(?).
Something must be off center, because with the: house batteries, head, aft water tnk. and fuel 
tnk. all on the Stbd side one would expect a list to Starboard (?), not Port.
It is hard to prove , because of variable conditions, but  when on a Port or Starboard tack, my boat is faster 
on Starboard.
Lets see how your off-ctr. comment stands up on the forum!!!!!!

Spill a little bit of water on the counter to the right of the galley faucet and 
see which way the water runs.  If it does not run to port, I doubt you have a 
C320!  Seriously though, my sense after 13 years with the boat is that the list 
is not a weight problem but rather the original mold was off center.  Just my 
opinion but I am sticking with it until proven wrong!

has a list??  My hull #680 has no visible list.  The PO did install a third 4D 
battery on the Stbd. Side.
