[C38] Propane tank location

[Max soto]

Well, it seems we don’t have that many options for our boats. I’m waiting for some pics of a locker installed on the sail locker.. if it doesn’t work for me, I think I’ll make a locker for the stern rail that won’t get in the way with the davits I’m planning to install on a near future. 
Thanks for the comments.

I couldn't find a location that was below the seat height and was high enough for the bottom of the compartment to "drain" out above the water line.  The only place I have seen that it would work was on centerline behind the wheel with a modified (raised) lid to the aft seat behind the wheel.  I think there was a C38 on Puget Sound that came up with this solution.
