[Rhodes22-list] correction Re: sheet size

[Mary Lou Troy]

Fred informs me that I had it backwards on the hinged leg that 
supports the cabin berth. The forward end of the berth rests on a peg 
attached to the compression post. This allows the hinged panel to 
lift to access the head without disturbing the rest of the berth. The 
hinged leg supports the stern end of the berth because that support 
had broken off the step on our boat.
