Thanks for the info on the Boombox, Tom. Since the v-berth space on my old M-15 doesn't seem to accommodate any of the newer porta- potties, that (with the Wag Bags) seems like a good alternative. And at the risk of descending even lower down the scatological ladder, I have a question about ecologically correct boating that I have not seen addressed anywhere. To put it bluntly: Is it OK to pee over the side (to leeward, of course) while sailing on an inland lake? My guess is that it's probably against various state and/or federal laws. But I'm just looking for confirmation here. And yes, it was a hoot sailing with our resident photo maven, Bill Lamica yesterday. He told me that he felt like my M-15 actually out- performed his (now Tom's) M-17. But I kept telling him that it probably just felt that way because he was so much closer to the water. :-P David =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= David W.
