     Since nobody jumped forward with an answer, here's what I found in my 
     old undergraduate copy of the CRC handbook:
     
     Boiling Point      Pressure (PSI abs)      Pressure (PSI Gauge)
     
     100 C              14.7                    0
     111 C              21.5                    6.8
     119 C              27.9                    13.2
     
     Hope that helps!
     
     regards
