We used to have a Catalina 28 and it listed to port also.  Maybe all
Catalina's list to port?

My waterline is OK as I moved it up about 2 inches several years ago.  Got
tired of scraping the barnacles where there was no  bottom paint; now there
is bottom paint!  I sacrificed most of the blue stripe at the bottom but so
far, no other person has ever noticed the difference unless I point it out!

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!
