Many thanks, but why does LIST = HEEL?

Both are synonyms for "to lean over"
As in the ship heeled over to port.
Interesting that there is no 'sounds like' indicator. Was it a typo?
Heal sounds like heel but is not a synonym is it?
Apologies, I completely missed the typo in the OP, the clue reads -

Heel finally...
