Neil, my 32 is a 1980, hull #59. We're in fresh water. The first time we ever actually swam off the boat was this past summer when we went to the thousand islands. Jumping off the boat that first time .. no wait, second .. (I lost my shades off the stern in our anchorage. Filthy water. Didn't even find my shades). Anyway, swimming off the boat at anchor was great. We kind of just did what Bruno described, being in fresh water. So I haven't _needed_ the shower but it's a nice to know thing. I got excited about the Landfall's separate shower stall. I guess it's not critical.
