I also did a bit of sailing and remember it was also standard to steer a bit more upwind if the boat is listing too much. That is, if there isn't anything in the way, if you steer more upwind :p

Generally you'll heel over the closer you are into wind while your sails aren't luffing. Taking off the wind will make the boat heel less.

This will actually depend on your course with regards to wind. There will be a course that will generate maximum heeling moment.
