My wife is my fishing buddy (like, it appears, many other members). This brings up the delicate issue of what does mom do when nature calls. Having a 1963 Eastport (16'7" hull) space is at a premium and having a bona fide porta potty or other such plumbing is out of the question. Non-the-less mom needs to be taken care of (or our excursions get very limited).

Enter the bucket. We've all used 'the bucket' Normally I step out onto the swim ladder but after three brews (or so) a rocking swim ladder and my impaired equilibrium don't mix well so I join the bucket brigade.

Mom, being of a delicate nature, needed something a little more refined than just an 'ordinary bucket'. This gave me the opportunity to partake in my favorite pastime, look at the boat, dream, and come up with crazy ideas on how to make the whole experience better.

Anyhow so ever, I came up with the idea to have a small bucket stowed underneath the rear seat in a frame (two pieces). This frame could be taken out and put into a 'boat frame' (also two pieces, I haven't quite come up with a good term for this) that are placed across the two 'seats' just behind the anchor locker. I could spend countless words trying to describe the whole works and probably confuse myself. Therefore I took a series of photos that you can see by using the below link. If you have any question please let me know and I'll try to answer them (but I'll probably end up taking more photos since, as they say, each is worth a thousand words).

Good boating, keep mom happy!

PORTA POTTY

Bob,

Your links are not going to the right place.
I fixed your link on your other post.

Here is the problem:
This is your link
http://s263.photobucket.com/albums/ii145/Bob_Younger/PortaPotty/?page=1&action=tageditmany

There should NOT be this part in the link:
?page=1&action=tageditmany
I don't know where you are getting this last part from as your link does not work with it.

This is how your link should be:

That is excellent. Simple, effective, comfortable and attractive (as much as it can be).

Nice work Bob!
