Well, ok...

In groups in Baja we just let people swim from the Kleppers as 
it was so warm, always with a support boat modestly nearby. On one hot day 
in the San Juans we let someone sort of go in "half way" (teen-age girl)
while three boats were rafted up, again modestly. This was bordering on an
urgency, can't wait sort of thing, with no place to get out (one of those
long stories).

On solo trips when I couldn't get to shore I used my coffee cup once, and
another time found just the tip of a rock near shore to put a paddle brace
on so I could get one leg out,  (etc.)

I suggest women wear a two piece bathing suit and baggy shorts. 

We always encourage people to keep drinking and try to find a lot of 
acceptable bathroom spots (eg outhouses in the San Juans and other
places). With kids I mention that he/she who pees the most gets a gold
star.

I do seem to remember this thread, however...
