I have to agree with you and JohnH, I would hate to have a porta potty on
board any boat, either on mine, or a friends. # 1 over the side, or in
the
water, #2 is in a marina.



Another considerate person thinking of the needs of his
wife..............Come on honey, if you have to go so bad just squat over
the gunwhale and let it go. ;-)


My friend, an Ontario Provincial Police officer who gets the
much-vied-for summer boating duty, tells me that about 80% of male
drowning victims are found with their flys down. Yup, guys taking a
leak over the side.

I rarely survive an afternoon's sail without a trip to the head, and I
don't even drink beer. If my husband were as understanding as a few of
you guys he'd be sailing alone (actually he wouldn't be sailing at all
because he would never have bought the boat because I would have said -
no we aren't buyin that POS! are you f'in crazy! I ain't goin on that
thing! there's nowhere to pee but over the side!)


OTOH - I am the one who maintains/empties it.
