Default Seamanship Question #3

One should be port, one to starboard....and the the one aft should be offset
by the weight of the fuel tank on the opposite side while the one forward
should be oddset by the weight of the water storage...and forget putting it
in the bow...I think that's the dumbest thing I've ever seen...Hunter has
done that on several strles...nothing like having to traipse through a whole
boat in foulies just to use the pottie.....

You should consider if Booby is going to be attempting to purchase this
vessel. If so locate one large cedar bucket in the cockpit and one under the
V-berth therefore making it unnecessary to more his fat butt when nature
calls.
