Island: Hiva 'OaVincent at the haulout facility near the port has the capability to refill propane / gaz tanks Mobil Station - Cooks Bay Island: Mo'orea Mobil Station Cooks Bay Tuesday Drop Off You can drop off your empty propane bottle with them.

5-24 SV Hana I confirmed yesterday the propane truck comes to the Mobil station in Pao Pao on Tuesdays. They will take your tank to PPT and bring it back the following Tuesday. Another option, if one is in a hurry, would be to see if one of the daily couriers that run between MOZ and PPT would take it to the gas plant and get it filled for you the same day. Moorea Gaz Island: Mo'orea Moorea Gaz 87 73 81 42 The guy at Moorea Gaz circumnavigates the island in his truck and can pick up or deliver to pretty much any landmark along the islandโ€™s main road. I handed my tank off to him at the Haapiti dock after scheduling a time and place by phone. The bottles are shipped to Tahiti on Monday to get filled and return by ferry on Tuesday. The price for propane was 352 XPF per kilo, plus a handling fee of 1000 XPF for my one (6kg capacity) tank

Campgaz Cooking Bottles

Island: Tahiti

We have had a number of folks looking for the larger blue bottles called Campgaz. After much searching including going to the Gaz plant in Fare Ute they were unable to find ones for sale. Please let me know if you find these for sale. See picture

9-21 According to SV Capall Mara Ace Hardware in Papeete has all the fittings to fill your own bottles But NOT the larger tanks.. We tried to buy one in Tahiti even visiting Tahiti Gas but couldnโ€™t get one. You can get them refilled inTahiti but be aware if considered too rusty they wonโ€™t do it. We havenโ€™t been able to get the Camping Gaz refilled in Hauhine or Bora Bora. Purchased 13kg bottle instead and have decanted into our three Camping Gaz bottles.
