We have a good sized Irish Setter pup, 9 months old, learning to be a sailor. So far she has done grand for up to 8 hours. She was pretty happy to hop off at that point though.

A dog that I had earlier in my life was happy to whiz on the bow on a rag rug, which washed out in the water. She would usually hold her dumps for docking at night and you have not laughed until you have seen a 200lb man and a 55 lb Irish Bitch in one of those innertubes with the cover on them for towing behind the boat... making their way to the shore with a single paddle for the nightly walk...

Don't even ask what happened to the dingy...
