Our pre-race inspections took an unexpected turn yesterday!
We've heard that this is the case: just when you think you are ready to shove off . . . something else comes up! Yesterday, Truman went to check the head tubing (clearly corroded!) and it sprung a leak! Not that we were planning on using it anyhow!
The question remains . . . how will we pee? Now, there is a little ledge on which to mount a portable toilet for the Zongo Cup. Which should we buy? Or should we just save up the money for a new head? Compost toilet?
In the meantime, I have ordered my Go-Girl for the weekend. Might be voiding into a jar!

My vote? Go ahead and fix the toilet if you can. You are going to eventually do it anyway, and it's better to do that than to spend money on a portable toilet...
ReplyDeleteGo-Girl? Too funny... :)
Hey guys! Looking forward to seeing you outr for the big day on Friday - hope you get your head screwed on right, so to say! Skippers meeting is 8:30 AM at MBYC. If you have questions, call me at 441-3344. Thanks! Paul Irving
ReplyDeletewe also have a C25 that needs al lot of TLC; in MD; I'm looking into "marine sanitation devices" to modify the current toilet; any progress for you all?

ReplyDeleteProgress report: Our C25 sanitation device is a Coleman camping porta-pottie! $100. Not glamorous, but we are limited on sailing now that our boom is broken. Probably won't need to use the pottie for some months infact.
