Thank you, everyone, for your helpful replies. Sea Dog, the boat is new. It is only slightly listing. We bought it partially fitted-out, (as a sailaway), and have completed the fit out ourselves. Would you expect any boat, (new or otherwise), to have a list? I mean, is it normal? It is only a 'problem' because of the gas locker not draining, and the lid on the gas locker not being water-tight, so the gas bottle sits in a shallow pool of water when we are not there to sort it out. Ideally, we would make the lid water-tight and we are getting a cover for the back which will help. But I am now curious as to whether a slight degree of list is just one of those things? Thank you.
