But it's such a nice distraction!

Nobody mentioned the best way to save water when showering, which is
to start
with a small bucket of warm soapy water (can even be seawater) and
wash down with that. Only use the fresh water shower for rinsing off
the soap & dirt & salt. You can use less than 1 gallon per shower.
Also saves energy going into the water heater.

In a warm climate, you can shower on the transom platform and rinse
quite thoroughly using a garden sprinkler or spray bottle.

Taking a hot shower is one of the pleasures of civilization. No point
in cruising without it IMHO.

The problem with that in a mixed crew is that naked women on deck tend
to distract the helmsman. :-)
