compartment for any signs of fuel leakage.
Fill the tank, allowing space at the top of the tank for
thermal expansion.
Fill slowly near the top to avoid overflow.
Remove nozzle after tank is full and replace fill cap.
Make sure cap is tight.
After fueling is complete, open all hatches, doors,
and compartments.
Visually check all fuel fittings, lines, and tanks for
fuel leakage.
Check all lines up to the engine. Smell for fumes.
Correct any problem before you start the engine.
Turn main battery switches on (see DC Electric
System chapter in this manual).
Restart engine and restore boat to operating condi-

5.6 LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) System
LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) is a generic term to
describe liquefied gasses consisting predominately of
Propane (C3) and Butane (C4) hydrocarbons.
Your boat comes equipped with one 4lb LPG tank. LPG
is used to fuel your galley stove (see Fig. 5.11 for the
LPG system layout). The tank is located in the specially
designed and fully contained LPG locker located in the
aft starboard cockpit seat locker (see Fig. 5.6). For con-
venience, the locker has additional space for a second
LPG tank.
Within the LPG locker is the tank hose connection and
regulator/solenoid. The hose connection should be
threaded snuggly onto the tank. When two tanks are
present, switch the hose connection between them as
needed.
A remote panel (Fig. 5.7) is located at the galley and
mounted on the lower forward upper galley cabinet face.
This remote panel allows automatic control over the flow
of LPG to the stove. Please refer to the DC Electric
Systems chapter in this manual for details on powering
the remote panel.
