That's silly, you'd only have forward visibility and you'd destroy the privacy of the head. If you're going to put it in the head, you could build yourself a little plexiglass dome or a small cylindrical shaped dodger with windows all around, poking up out of the head; sort of like a commander's cupola on a tank (ring mounted .50 cal machine gun optional). The porta potti would be on a pneumatic lifter so you could raise it to look out. Or you could skip the dome/dodger and just use periscopes. Either way, you would put the potti on a lazy susan type bearing arrangement for quick 360 degree visibilityBilly wrote:Have to admit, I really like the layout now, except I would like to be able to look forward, especially since I ocassionally steer from below in really bad conditions. Suppose they could put half walls on the head so you could see forward?
Seriously, Billy, how do you steer from inside? Autopilot remote? Which one do you have?
