Nana made a sliding curtain suspended below the stern deck to conceal the throttle, shift and steering cables, I/O trim pump and bilge blower behind the toilet. She made the main privacy curtain with a rod pocket top to be mounted on the tubular frame. The curtain's side and bottom edges are held in place by Velcro strips. Nana's a "keeper". Entry to the area is via a hinged half door at the bottom and a corresponding split in the privacy curtain above.
The toilet (ya, ya, I know it's a "head") is a Dometic Sealand porcelain unit with 9 gal holding tank. It requires a pressure water system to flush, but I haven't yet done the plumbing. I had planned to just use the port-a-potty that we used for years, but apparently it is no longer legal here. Portable toilets are not allowed on the great lakes. I understand that you can be fined if you have a portable on board. The only acceptable toilet types are those that must be pumped out, not dumped out into your residential toilet. I understand that "they" don't want idiots dumping waste into our lakes, but this is a serious inconvenience and expense. I'm not sure what trailer boaters are expected to do without a portable; maybe poop on the beach somewhere or pee overboard? I hope this legislation doesn't backfire.
