[Alberg30] Re. Storage under sink.

[Dave Terrell]

I had a butane stove on my cal 27 and kept the butane outside in a
storage compartment i  created for it. I used pvc piping with a cap on
each end. i drilled holes in the bottom cap so any butane that leaked 
would disapate into the atmosophere. I thought that would make the
arrangement safe.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the tip!  IS butane safe for boating?  Sounds better than
alcohol!

Thanks,

Scott
