Thoughts on new lpg system

[JimBlue]

I am exploring conversion from CNG to propane aboard my 1987 Sabre 34 Mk II. Is it safe to use the stern locker that now houses my CNG cylinder to house a propane tank? Can I use the existing solenoid valve for the propane system? Thanks.

The huge advantage of LPG is it's energy density, it's a liquid, not a gas like CNG.

pretty sure that is illegal .. those stations are not designed for scuba tanks. but then again i know people do it
