Talking Heads
I spent ages tracking down this old thread, so I hope that this is of use to someone.
There is a new store opposite my office called Tchibo (no typo, it's Japanese). Every week they have a new theme, outdoors, baby, ironing, etc and this week it is cludgies! Sorry, toilets/bathrooms for the gentile English.
One of the items on sale is a "Talking Toilet Ghost". This little gizmo is activated when the seat is lifted and says "Hello! This is your toilet speaking! Wouldn't you rather like to sit down?"
I just thought that this is perfect for a boat to encourage your guests not to make a mess. At least it would encourage them to ask what it's all about and you could explain the reason without being embarrassed.
It's only £4.99. The only contacts in the catalogue are helpdesk@tchibo.co.uk or phone 0800-0850507. They also do a mean frozen coffee.

p.s. The brand name is TCM. Any connection???

I don't like the idea of pissing on the cockpit floor much. I think it would be better to instal a hose pipe into one of the cockpit drains, a funnel could be fitted to the other end. If this was then mounted on a post at a central point both male and female could have a wee dribble any time they were passing. Im saving up so I can buy the funnel, meanwhile I'll have to keep using the bucket when I need a piss.

Good idea to pee into the cockpit as long as it goes straight out - on my boat the cockpit drains into the aft lazarette and then overboard thro' 2 large drains. As I keep fenders, buckets, kedge anchor & warp and gas in there, it wouldn't be very hygenic. I usually kneel or sit(depending on conditions) or pee over the lee side with an arm looped around a shround - but only if its not lumpy, or pee into a bucket if really rough... SHMBO also does this as she's sick if goes below if rough.
