Ok Im curious to see if its possible to install a port -a - potty somewhere on my boat. Its a 1990 Bayliner capri 1850 bowrider. I was debating about cutting into the bow somewhat under the seat and creating a spot to install it. It would be helpful to have one when we are out all day and some of the girls need to use the restroom? Has anybody ever done anything like this? or maybe know of a way to get it done?

Cutting into the bow of an 18 1/2 foot bowrider doesn't sound like a good idea. Just tell the girls to pee in the lake. It really won't kill all the fish.

How about just cutting a round hole in the swim platform? You could even install a seat and lid :)

Almost anything is possible... Doesn't mean its a good idea. What are your plans for some sort of screening/partition for privacy?

Privacy was just going to be everyone turn their backs ! ha ha . Im not really sure what a bow filler cushion is? They have been peeing in the lake already ha ha but Im trying to figure out a way to get around that. They tend to complain alot about doing that but I told them its not a big deal. no dead fish and everything is fine. Just dont go swimming afterwards :D

Have you ever had to remove someonelses waste? Its not the Glory filled opportunity you may be thinking it is, I'm a married father of three daughters, I thought I could get my son to do this once he got old enough which was about 5 years ago and he has yet to be in the same state when the time comes! And all I have to do is hook up a hose!

My family knows that on the boat there is no porta potti get your butt in the water!

Just get the smallest poti you can find, and slide it under the port console. Move it out between the consoles when needed.

stowage for a capri would be under the starboard rear jump seat. expand the seat if necessary.

however, you are starting down a road that will lead to headaches......

tell them to jump in the water.

A bow filler cushion. Slide potty underneath. Add something simple to keep it from sliding back.
