 Hi PD's ....just an assumption.....:whistle ...but I think .jpg 51 of 53 from the DDMBC 2008 meeting maybe the diagonal +>>>>>> well spaced apart twin cylinder engine of PS Cliff Bickerstaff

So  :thinking.....

1) is that powder blue tank a GAS tank?
2) is that a gas regulator on the STDB side mounted directly in the horizontal plane to the gas tank port?
3) just below the STDB side cylinder headcap..... appears to be a DRIP  bucket...white plastic container...
4) what are these drip buckets for?....like I understand a bucket catches drips.....but??????????

The photograph does not confirm......however suggests that a similar engine cylinder drain may exist from the port cylinder
