It's not just the water - it's the steam-moisture-condensation in a
lot of climates.

In the tropics - people on my boat get to soap up and swim and then
rinse in a 2 liter bottle of fresh water.

Hi,

Far Cove is set up for a shower, but was never installed. I was looking
at "low-flow" showerheads, and they say they use 2.5gpm. Egad - for a
5-min shower that's over 10 gallons! Far Cove has 50gal of water, and I'm
thinking of addding another 20gal tank, but still: 10 gals per shower??

Is this realistic? What is a practical estimate of how much water an
on-board shower will take?
