I have a CNG stove which came with my boat (1985 C&C 37): it has the same CNG cylinder being discussed: my problem is that in a recent insurance survey (June 2017), the surveyor made it a point to state that the cylinder must be stored in a separate locker:
*7.5 As per ABYC A-22, secure the CNG tank (cylinder) in a protective dedicated locker, rigidly secured to protect them from movement, readily accessible for operation of valves and testing for leakage, vaportight to the hull interior, provided with a means to latch its cover, vented to the atmosphere, and located so that with its cover open or closed, escaping vapor cannot reach the bilges, machinery spaces, accommodations, or other enclosed spaces. my Insurance company then required me to remove the cylinder from the boat in order to continue the policy: has anyone had to deal with this? If so, what did you do with the cylinder, and what was your response form the Insurance company? Thanks Richard Richard N.

The nearest “exchange” location is hundreds of km from here over an international border and Persistence has no propane locker. I contacted our local Gas company and they have a testing location where they are able to refill my tank. I had to get it certified in Canada and it is a drop off and pick up the next day solution but quite affordable and allows u to use our stove and oven. The adaptor was not cheap but is worth it Mike Persistence Halifax, NS From: CnC-List [mailto:cnc-list-boun...@cnc-list.com]On Behalf Of coltrek via CnC-List Sent: Sunday, December 31, 2017 4:28 PM To: cnc-list@cnc-list.com Cc: coltrek Subject: Re: Stus-List CNG tank refill location I'm a little out of my area of expertise here, but I tried to get an adapter for a forklift propane tank, which is laid sideways. And after talking to a friend of mine in the propane business, he told me that forklifts use liquid propane which was what happens when you laid on its side, and Flames used vapor gas which comes straight up. I think for that reason, there were no adapters readily available. Just a thought.
