[C38] New Owner w/ CNG question

[Charles Finn]

Jay,
Welcome aboard! You will find the instructions to make a propane 
conversion on the C38 website. Look under "Tech-Tips" for much more as 
well. Propane requires a different tank setup as well. Most of us hang a 
tank over the rail (there are photos of that on the site as well).
When you get a chance, take a look at the Registry and please consider 
drafting something up about you, your boat, and your ambitions!
All the best,
Charles Finn
