I never said anything about indecent exposure!

If you mean toilets that discharge directly overboard, you can't be
anywhere in the US, or on any inland Canadian waters.

although our skipper 'mooned' a
hugh cruise ship to the delight of the passengers while it was preparing
to leave. .

Class does have a way of making itself known, doesn't it? :)

Yes, it does, and you've proven it in this thread. Thanks for the 'direct
deposit' info. Some of us folks don't have heads on our boats!

Not to run this subject into the ground, er, water, but wouldn't directly
depositing toilet paper get you for littering if nothing else?

Nope..."direct deposit" from above the water or while in it is legal, both
under cover of darkness and in broad daylight. It's only illegal if it
goes into any kind of container or installed device before it's sent
overboard.

Excuse me, for nitpicking, but I am curious about the interpretation. In
our boat the rule is: do not go to the rail for peeing. Pee instead into
a small plastic bottle ("duck" we call it) by staying firmly inside the
boat and then pour the liquid over the rail. So does this safety measure
make it illegal?

Yes! You read her post. She was perfectly clear on this aspect of dumping.

What I enjoy doing when I get boarded for a 'safety check' and they check
my head also, is say, "Excuse me sir, but I've got to take a ****." I remove
my shorts and shirt, jump into the water and let her rip. There ain't a thing
in the world they can do about it.

Yep. It has to go directly from you into the water to be legal...putting
in anything else first makes it illegal.

You have to assume that once the 'good captain' jumped in, the water
would be considered so polluted...one more turd wouldn't make much
difference.

Don...please stop replying to this animal. Every reply to ANY of his
posts only encourages him...when the real objective is to make him go
away..which can only be accomplished by ignoring him.

That said, I'll share a funny story about him with you... Years ago when
I didn't have enough sense to stay off alt.sailing.whatever, Neal posted
in a thread about a storm something to the effect that "there I was,
stark naked, clinging to the mast while the winds and seas howled around
me"...the first reply was, "and then someone called the marina manager."

You are so right about this sicko. He thrives on staring flames. If
everyone would ignore him he would probably commit suicide within a
month. Not a bad thing.

He's like JAX, only with more advanced spelling and syphilis.

That story about defecating in the water to make a point to the
authorities was charming...PLONK!
