It weighs about 20# and lives right behind the front passenger seat.  It
really ought to have a marine mounting kit, but it's already as far forward
as it can get without going through some steel.  And it doesn't spill -- if
you turn it upside down the flushing water drains out through the cap, but
not the sewage.

If it *does* end up in the front seat I'll be worrying about the weight
more than the contents.  And it's big enough that the seat-back/headrests
ought to provide significant protection.
