[Public-List] on our Heads

[Gordon Laco]

Hi Roger - 

Up here people get their boats confiscated for committing crimes such as
your local motor boaters described to you...

My two cents worth is that the more substancial you make your head, the
happier with it you (and your guests) will be.  A regular Lavac or Brydon
head is an easy fit in the space between the bulkheads where Alberg designed
in the head.  I think use of a porta pottie or anything moveable will end up
being unsatisfactory.

Gord #426 Surprise
Who does not miss the porta-pottie 426 was factory fitted with; the current
Brydon is wonderful.  Users can do their duty like adults, reading magazines
while making offerings in privacy and comfort...
