Wayners...I use to work on Imperial oil steam ships on the Great lakes and I know they shipped Gasoline as well as oil around Great lake ports. Ocean going vessels don't really know.

We were not allowed to wear boots with steel cleats on them for fear of sparks...course then there was always a crew with chipping hammers removing old paint from steel plating...always wondered about that. :-)

The Imperial Hamilton tanker which I spent most time on blew up in port with a load of gasoline in 1961.
