OK, so I guess it WOULD be more discreet to use something like this since you wouldn't have to have four or eight people leaning one way while someone perches on the edge to pee!

I have never peed over the side of the boat although I have wanted to on several occasions - just couldnīt work out how it would be done without capsizing. The post race sprint to the loos is always the fastest I have ever run.

Unlike my menīs crew - they happily stood up in the boat while waiting for a race to start and let it all out (so to speak). Not a pretty sight.
