Following on from Daydream Believers admission, which perhaps many do, in the thread about sink through-hull diameter, I thought it would be interesting to ask the question.....

If you mean the galley sink (the only sink in my boat) there's no need to.
If I am below I can use the heads. If I am in the cockpit I cna use the cockpit drains.

There was s song where a guy knew that his girl friend was posh because, when she peed in the sink, she moved the dishes first.

At college when desperate I used to pee in the sink.
Because the toilets where down 5 stories of very drafty stairs and it is such a pain to have to get fully clothed in the middle of winter just to go and pee when there is a sink just next door.

Many years ago we were crossing Cardigan Bay and it was as rough as a badger's arse; Lesley bemoaned that while she was bursting for a pee, she felt it simply wasn't safe to negotiate her way to the heads She didn't like my suggestion that she just peed in the cockpit and claimed this'd leave the cockpit 'wet & slippery', which had me almost peeing myself too: the cockpit was being flushed with 20-30 gallons of seawater about once every ten seconds!

Plastic milk container does a job for me, and the sink is too high.

Used to use external catheters when gliding, with pipe through hole through the bottom of the fuselage. Once had the pipe freeze up at high altitude

I've never found it an issue. Cutting carefully with good scissors helps.The edge of the opening can be sharp

What or where is this Daydream Believer's admission and why would it come up?
Why would anyone need to pee in a sink when there is a head. If no head, there are special bottles on ebay for £2.
Yes, cockpit drain is ok by me if conditions mean one can't leave cockpit for a few minutes.
How did this subject arise?
Last time I used a sink thus was in a university dorm room when I was desperate and the loos were a hike away and sink was not used for crockery washing, just teeth cleaning really.
Now £5 or £ 10 for a fancy one

That's a cracker.
I was told this forum was full of useful advice, but it is full of humour too.

Use the sink as a toilet? Geting the toilet paper down that little drain is a real job.....
