Sound proofing a Toilet

[justanothersailboat]

You need thick dense material such as a couple of inches of concrete and airtight seals. Suspending the room inside with mounts with elastic properties helps with direct transmission instead of airborne.

...that must have been one hell of a curry.

Encourage other crew members to continue their conversations in a normal tone and not all stop to listen

A running commentary followed by a vigorous piss taking session when the crew member takes their seat back on the rail is normal in race crews. It’s a bonus on a boat if you don’t have to be watched. I feel anyone who has anxiety about being heard is not going to have a pleasant voyage.

Do you imply that crews leave their place just to have a pee…..what about performance

You being an old salt, I didn’t think the old advice was necessary. Never pee off the windward rail. It’s antisocial, you have neighbours.

Fine advice for young men....what about those who now take half an hour to pee ?....not so funny anymore

I have been ashore for a while…….theres an opening for Musto,built in bags or diversionary tubes down the right leg

Well, don’t stand on the windward shore....if a yacht is passing close by

I always stand downwind in the garden

Old habits....or pissy neighbors ?

No neighbours but as we know the countryside is never empty……piss behind the barn unless northerlyblowning

They must be mighty strong yachtsmen down your way if they can pee upwind.

What pre flush noise are you thinking of.

If it's that kind of noise the OP is thinking about may be a head like an Arab Dows should be fitted at the head of the boat.

I viewed a boat some time age where there was a head fitted in the cockpit giving no privacy at all to the users

Wow - talk about having a poo with a view!

"Head" in a nautical sense referring to the bow or fore part of a ship dates to 1485. The ship's toilet was typically placed at the head of the ship near the base of the bowsprit, where splashing water served to naturally clean the toilet area.

No paper required

And that of the client too?

Referred to by Nelson's men as Neptune’s kiss.

Curry is one of my go to meals and having my boat in Durban which is full of Indians from India who know how to make curries and not the so-called curry you get in England or EU.

The curry we get is very different to the ones we used to eat when I lived in the UK and react in a very different way

Don't drink South African beer and it too cold like beer in the US as it's a warm climate.

The one think I do miss is English Beer.

Wow Indians from India.

Having sailed after catheterisation both in 2023 and 2024, I can confirm that sailing garments and indeed the sailing outings arent really suited to pee bags - rowing was particularly stressing in our rather confined dinghy

As the proverb says "he who pees against the wind gets his own back"
