The shower on the 35 MKI must be similar to the one on my MKII so i don’t
quite understand what gives rise to your comments Joe. Definitey not like
the big acrylic shower and home but totally adequate for a 35 foot boat.
The biggest issue with showering daily while cruising is the amount of
water the tanks carry. When cruising we both shower everyday so our water
lasts only 4 days or so before we need to take in more but by that time we
usually need fresh supply of food as well. Alianna has oiled teak and not
oiled every year either and i have cetol coated(1 coat only) teak and holly
sole throughout and teak bulkheads and cabinetry very well made i think by
a marine carpenter back in 1974. My teak is in beautiful condition despite
years of showering and my bilge is clean and odor free. We do not have any
issues, in fact we receive kind remarks about the appearance and lack of
any odor in the boat including nasty fuel odors common in some boats. We
have a solar powered vent an the main cabin and the 2 dorades have long
since been replaced by low profile stainless vents.
