In Response To: Re: A shower (Vic Roy)

I did as UV sugugested, but instead of hot and cold, I went with salt and fresh. The "Bahamian shower". In an effort to save fresh water while water camping at anchor in the Bahamas, I make the wife wash with salt and then rinse with fresh water (the colder the water the less that is used). I installed a flexable shower curtain track from BoatUS in the overhead. The curtain keeps the water contained and away from the light fixture. I put a very fine mesh screen in the drain, this only allows soapy water into the bilge. The wife gets to clean the drain.
