Bernhard - your build is very nice  :-))

a) are they steam heating tubes around the gas tank to minimise the freezing effect? in cold countries?...I am from Australia so do not think I will need them
b) I see a gas regulator......what brand & how functional is it?
c) is the pressure gauge 10 Bar?

I am a Paddleduck member & very slow builder...my build of PS Decoy is about 7 years old & still only 60% finished - I have a French Anton V71 gas regulator & intend to install a gauge on either side of the regulator...I also have a French JMC3H horizontal paddle engine & a Scottish ACS Engineering vertical boiler & accessories

I have just re-visited your photographs & realised your gas regulator is either an Anton V71 or V72...just mounted upside down to mine...... :}
