Hi,

I'm considering an shower for outside usage. Where is it standard located? At the back of the boat, or in the cockpit, or somewhere else? A picture would be great :)

Thanks, Gregor

Hi, on our boat it is fitted at the back (port side). Works fine if you have been out for a swim ;-)
On the picture below you can see 2 covers:
1. Shower head
2. Valve hot/cold water


If you do not want hot water in the shower - you normally only need one hole/cover as the shower head often includes a valve.

Hope this gives you an idea?!

Thanks Peter. Clear picture. 

I was more thinking of somewhere in the cockpit because all hoses are there too. In the part where the cockpit goes from small to wide, there is a vertical space from 17cm wide. Those from Plastimo should fit there, from what I measured.

Any comments are more than welcome :)

Hi Gregor

On the pictures below you will see the installation on Blue Nose.
I am not certain that is a factory installation, because the hotwater tank is from a local danish company.
The Brand of the hose-handle is Attwood.





I would recommend to have both hot and cold water outlet. When on land I use the shower to first empty the hot-water pipe/tank and afterwards the cold water-pipes with a standard air compressor. I don't need to take the compressor up the ladder.

I still prefer to have the shower outside the cockpit following the philophosy:

Dry inside the cockpit - wet outside the cockpit Clap

Totally agree on that!

Cockpit is dry area.

I've been thinking about the back of the boat as well. Besides the location of the hoses, I also think if you want to take a shower when you awake, do you want to stand outside the boat (assuming you didn't want to go for a swim).
