Easy to do if there's a sink in the head
Use a shower hose/head that attaches to sink faucet...available from just about any RV supply...maybe even Walmart. Use as a hand held or mount on a bulkhead. Just be sure to put away the TP and anything else in the head that you don't want to get soaked before using it. However, a 25' boat doesn't carry very much fresh water, so you'll have to learn to take "Navy showers:" get wet, turn the water off while you lather up...turn the water back on only long enough to rinse the soap off. Even that much will put a major stress on your fresh water supply, especially with more than one person aboard.

You will have to pressurize the water system, which means, I believe, that the stock water bladder must be replaced by a hard tank in order to hook in a pump. I would use the cockpit for a shower basin rather than the head, but modesty was never my strong suit. good lick, Jim

SUN SHOWER
TO AVIOD DRAINING YOUR FRESH WATER SUPPLY TRY A SUN SHOWER, EVEN GETS HOT IF LAID IN THE SUN FOR A TIME. IF YOU'RE SHY, A PRIVACY STALL CAN BE HAD AT A CAMPING SUPPLY OUTLET. CHEAPERTHENDIRT.COM HAS SEVERAL. HOIST IT FROM A HALYARD.

Not necessary to replace the bladder with rigid...
A water pump can pull water out of anything. But a pressurized fresh water pump is essential (I ssumed he had one). The Sun Shower is a great device...IF the sun stays out, the air is warm...and you're an exhibitionist.
In really HOT weather, it's also a good source of dishwater.
