Today I just stood up and turned to the side.  If I fell in, it dawned on me I would be doing a swan dive thru my ...well you know.

I hope it's emptied and rinsed occasionally. :puke_blue:

Hobie thinks of everything.  They put a urinal in the center of the yak.

So once a few years ago I, for some dumb reason, capped my (empty, rinsed, but not well enough) gatorade bottle and it made it's way from my crate into my car.  I found it like 2 months later.  In August.  I opened it and almost fell over, the ammonia smell was insane, it brought tears to my eyes.  

 

The new rule is that as soon as I decide to replace my bottle, the cap gets thrown away before the bottle go into the crate.

nothing like having a johnny bottle on board.

I stand and go, as long as nobody is around.  

Fishing from a cheap lifetime kayak makes standing to whiz very hard.  I get out of the yak and find a tree every time.

I hope it ain’t the original flavor bottle. I shudder at the thought of being thirsty thinking it might be real Gatorade, lol. 

JK big rig; pi$$ off the side all the time (although might dribble a little due to short appendage).

Same here. I dump it in the lake and rinse good after every use. 

If I tried to pee over the side of my big rig I’d be taking a swim. But if that happened I could just pee while I’m in the water

As long as your stream of justice is strong and true, you're alright, lol.

I just go in the foot well.  It has scupper holes and will eventually find its way out.

If it's calm, I'll go off the side. If the wind is blowing and I'm rocking, it's easier to keep my feet centered and use the scupper hole. 

Before I bought the Big Rig, I used a plastic urinal.  Those things are great!

60 with a stiff back.....always beach it.

Lakes are busier than before so usually get some finger pointing.

Yep, it's a feature I call the relief valve.

I just stand, face forward, and shoot for the side.  I always make a mess on the side, but luckily there's plenty of water nearby to wash it off.

 

In the summer, when the water is warm and I'm hot, this is usually a good excuse to take a quick dip to help cool down.

That pad kit is sick!   Expensive right?  And your color choice. White. Does it stain?

  • Super User

It's light grey, and anything I've gotten on it has come out with standard cleaners.  It's a die cut kit from Hobie by Marine Mat.  They're under $150 for the Compass.  Goes on in under 30 mins.
