On the ferry from Port Bolivar to Galveston they wouldn't let me board because I had an extra propane bottle that was not attached to a device. Luckily I had a propane grill I could attach to and that satisfied them.
I've taken that ferry many times, and the only thing they ever asked was if my tank was turned on, and to close it if it was. How did they know you had a spare tank, and did they tell you why it would be SAFE to have one connected to a grill, but UNSAFE just sitting there with the valve closed?
