Been there, done that - it sucks. :)

In my way of thinking, it's important to have those amenities that
appeal to the distaff side of humanity. I know on the Contender,
that
was one thing Mrs. Wave really liked about the boat - it was like her
bathroom at home.

I know you have an issue with towing and associated problems with
launching and retrieving, but it may pay you to look at stepping up a
couple of feet just to get the step down console.
The wife and I had a 15' Whaler for a couple years. The lack of a
potty on
board was never a problem. Even with the ProLine, the lack of a potty
was
never a problem, except for a guy who got the runs while fishing. He
learned to use a bucket with water therein.

You had someone crap into a bucket and than dump overboard? Isn't that
against the law down there?
Yes, it is.

How fun............swimming in the Bay with your kids and seeing someones
turds pass by.


I don't swim in Chesapeake Bay. I also don't go fishing in the Potomac
River just downstream from the Blue Plains sewage treatment plant, but
lots of guys do.


The fish from that area, especially the bottom feeders, must be yummy for
those guys. Yuk!


Nothing nasty ever gets dumped in Lake Erie!

Probably, but it was an emergency situation. I suppose I could have called
the Coast Guard to come and rescue the guy, and let him go all over
*their*
boat, but that wouldn't have been nice.

Interesting part of the law, is if you jump in the water and pee, or stand
inside the boat and pee overbard, it is legal. Pee in a bucket and pur it
overboard, is against the law.

Where do the fish and crabs take a crap? Little outhouses?

Which Whaler is that. I couldn't get directly to the boat without going
through the home page. Then I didn't know which boat it was! I'm for sure
getting something less than 19'.

No. Don't like it. It's not a center console. I don't like any boat I have
to sit in to steer. Even with the little 15' whaler I raised the console
10" so I could stand and steer.

I always carried a porti-potti on my "headless" boats. This time we're
trying a stowable chemical porti-potti.

This from the guy who told us he locks the head when women are on board.
