Subject: I would build a box in the cockpit under the wheel
In reply to: Doug WIlson 's message, "LP tanks" on - Tuesday - 04/ 3/12 - 3:51pm

I have two 1o lbs aluminum tanks that I wouldn't like to have inside(just in case it leaks) , so the best place for me would be to build a box in the cockpit under the wheel. It is out of the way, low, far from the stove, outside and would serve as an place to keep my feet on, if I sit and steer from the wormgear box .
I'm going to build a new mizzen mast, reinforced, prewired for wind generator and deck lights under the spreaders ( just in case) as well as the coaxial for the VHF.

That will be the place. I kept the tanks there during the hole trip to Fl and back tied with a line that went from inside of one lazarete to the other. There they are outside in case of leaks, easy to run a hose through the lazarete without drilling a hole( I hate drilling holes) can also build a cup holder on top of it,binaculars, handheld radio. Everything you need within easy reach. A box that will be easy removable because I don't always need them. But, they were there for the heater, because for the stove/oven I use small bottles that I refill with an adapter from the big tanks and they last several days. Propane in the boat may turn to be dangerous, not a joke. Good luck .
