Thank you, Richard and Bill! It's good to know it isn't anomalous. Probably because my attentions are elsewhere, I hadn't thought to check if things level out when I have three others in the cockpit. Three or four people would be over 10% of empty displacement. I'm wondering if this is the sort of thing that would be considered in the design.
Again, I greatly appreciate the input! I'm glad I asked before attempting any interventions. I'll try the wick idea for the companionway puddle.
