Portable tanks should always be removed from the boat to the dock for
refueling. This is standard recommended procedure to avoid fume settling
and/or accidental spillage within the craft. Perhaps a refresher boating
safety course is in order?

Hmm, interesting. So, if you were to take the same tank, and put hold
down clips on it, then it would somehow magically not allow fumes to
settle, and would, again, somehow make the fuel unspillable? I've got
two 9 1/2 gallon tanks from Bass Pro Shops. Mine has a handle, they
sell the same one without the handle, and with hold down clips. The
ONLY difference.
