Hello all, 

In the propane locker in our 1994 C&C 37/40+, there is a wood panel that has 
been painted white over varnish and is screwed down.  I forget the reason, but 
a couple years ago I needed to remove it, and I wanted to make sure it was well 
sealed so propane fumes would not leak below.  

However, the idea of a panel relying on sealer to not have leaks leaves me a 
bit nervous.  Even worse, if I am forced to get a survey for insurance 
purposes, I'm not sure this would pass. 

Is there an inherent reason for having a removable panel in the bottom of the 
propane locker?
Do any of you have the same model boat with a removable panel?  

I can get behind the locker by crawling into various fetal positions - not fun, 
but possible.  

Looking forward to hearing any insights,
