Hi,
Has anyone fitted one of these gas lockers.?
I have no problem with physically doing it, but would it affect the integrity of the hull.?


This is ideal for me as I have a "dead" area under the cockpit, above the "p" bracket.

Should water get in, it would just drain out the gas drain anyway.

thx
Howard

Disragerd this, I am just spouting a load of rubbish,
I have just realised, the bottom of the locker would be below the waterline.!

They are fine however on some boats there is not the height in the cockpit to mount them so the bottom drain exits 3" above the water level as is recommended.
