All familiar here too, along with ''syphon the python.''Suddenly remembered the aussie pub blokes' ones

As in "s/he's facilitating".If I'm in polite company I usually ask where the facilities are.
I don't think you've realised that by the time ships had engines they also had [insert favourite euphemism here.]I don't think that can be right. Surely they must have used the stern, because the ship is moving in the direction the bow is pointing, so using that would increase the likelihood of whatever you did ending up on the ship (or sailor!) itself.
You wouldn't pee off the back of a sailing ship for precisely the reasons you give for not peeing off the front.
Because sailing ships go backwards*? I think we needed that explained.
*No, not another euphemism.
If the ship has a following wind it can't go faster than the wind.
