Do you need a portable toilet for your boat?
A portable toilet, also known as a porta-potty, is a toilet that you can use when you don't have access to a regular toilet. It is a lightweight, compact and practical solution that is easy to transport and store.
That's why a portable toilet is also a smart thing to install on a boat where it's not possible to install a regular toilet. And especially if you have a larger boat or often go on longer boat trips, toilet facilities can be a necessity.
In fact, having a portable toilet on your boat is not just convenient. It is also an important part of being responsible when out on the water. With a camping toilet, you are helping to protect the aquatic environment and ensure that waste is handled in a hygienic manner – instead of having to find alternative solutions.

Remember the accessories for your boat's camping toilet
When investing in a portable toilet for your boat, it's important that you have the right equipment. They help keep your camping toilet clean and hygienic.
An important part of the accessory is sanitation fluid or sanitation tablets. This is because it helps to remove bad odours and promotes the decomposition process in a chemical toilet. Another necessity is extra soft toilet paper. If the paper isn't soft enough, it can clog the toilet, as toilet paper that is too thick has a hard time breaking down.
