[C320-list] Propane Tank Pressure

[Adam Weiner]

Sorry, I am confused and goodness knows I would never put my two cents
in unless requested.  When you ask for "the sage gurus" to provide input
are you asking for input on cooking on board, or for input on the
propane tank?

By the way, I use the propane tank extensively (about 2 to four hours
per week) and I fill the tank about every eight months regardless of
what the gauge indicates.  Thus, if your tank hasn't leaked it probably
has more than enough for your weekend.

Subject: [C320-list] Propane Tank Pressure


Hello all,

I am preparing for an extended cruise on the boat and wanted to be sure
I have enough propane for many meals aboard.  I have never refilled the
propane since I've owned the boat (3 yrs) and have only now actually
paid any attention to the pressure gauge.  

My question is, what should the pressure reading be for a full propane
tank? I have 100psi now, is this good? Is this almost empty?  Any
insight from the sage gurus on the list would be appreciated. 

Thanks for your help,

v/r
