Our 2015 575 has a two-door locker in the dinghy garage — one side houses a 10 lb. LPG tank and the other is a smaller compartment that we use for storing Coleman stove-style fuel canisters. After running out of LPG cruising in Nova Scotia last year, we went ahead and bought a second LPG tank. Unfortunately the second compartment is way too small to accommodate it. Has anyone gone to trouble of reconfiguring the compartments to enable storage of 2 x 10 lb. tanks? Any details appreciated!

Our 575 came with a spare tank that fits the locker.   Its not as big as the primary tank, but it lasts us for a few weeks.     I'll see if I can get a picture of it tomorrow as well as a brand/model.
