I am looking for ideas on better uses for all that space in the Head.

Right now it looks like this:

BEFORE

But I'd like it to look like this:

AFTER

or This:

Well, maybe those ideas are a little ambitious.

Nobody uses the porta-potty, but some passengers like to know it's there "just in case". So I am thinking of building a Box over it to act as a bench, and/or add shelves or clothes hanging rod or small microwave or keggerator or ??? Any Ideas? Has anyone done anything different with the Head?

Do you still prepare the head for its intended use, and then winterize it, etc.? If not, then it really isn't "there" and you might as well pull it out and devote that space to something more useful. If you do keep it prepped for use, and you don't want to have to pull a bunch of stuff out in order for someone to use it, then I'm not much help - there isn't much room to work with there.

A couple of guys here have pulled the head out and turned that space into something more useful for them.

I don't keep any water in it because it never gets used, and if it was needed, I could use water from the fresh water sink. I am considering leaving it out, but it is nice peace of mind for the admiral on longer trips.

This may give you a couple of ideas - but only if you're willing to lose the head....
