[C320-list] Listing to port

When sleeping in the aft cabin, there is a slight benefit to having a port list on the 320 because you don't feel like you're sleeping downhill.
But depending on where people are standing/sitting, where gear is stored and how full the tanks are, the boat is not generally that far off of centerline.  When Fuel, water and holding tanks are all empty and you have a full fridge and port side locker, you'll probably see a more substantial port list.

You could always hire a big guy to sit in the head so that the boat looks good at the dock.  :)

The list is still there in 1999 hull #660.  It helps to keep the aft water tank full, put a spare anchor in the starboard transom locker and when we cruise, the outboard mount is also on the starboard side of the stern rail.
