Racks for LPG cylinders

This is a retread of a previous thread --- I am looking for comments, suggestions, and discussions of and names of suppliers for racks to hang gas cylinders off railing. Please feel free to include 1# cylinders in your discussions.

As background, the cylinders will provide fuel for a stovetop in a 37' sailboat operating in mid-Chesapeake Bay on day sails and the occasional overnight.

Thanks to all...

Racks for LPG cylinders

I hang a 10 lb cylinder from my rail just using a DG clamp, no rack.
It’s for the grill, but has hung there with no problems for a couple of years.
Two DG clamps in the picture, the one on the left the tank is hung from, one on the right is a brace for my Solar panels.

I have a Sure Marine rail mount and it is a fine piece of gear.
