Ask your doctor about Scopace. It's an 8-hour tablet whose active ingredient is scopolamine. (There's also a patch, Transderm Scop, that lasts 3 days, though I've found the release rate is uneven) Scopolamine is by prescription because there are some counterindications, which is why you need to talk to your doctor. It's the most powerful anti-seasickness medicine there is.OP...Don't like setting up my gear on a boat since I get sea sick. <snip> I even do centrifugal training to build up some sea sick tolerance. as well as Dramamine. <snip> How many of you guys do centrifugal training??
Just my guess: The guy was turning tank valves with both hands and got confused. I've forgotten to turn my air on, but never turned the valve the wrong way. And since I always breathe from the reg immediately before stepping in, I always catch it. I think twice in my approx 105 dives it was off. Once my fault, once that crew guy's fault. Both times I shouted "Hey, my air is off!" and someone turned it on before I went in the water.Here is what I don't understand: how many tanks do you have to turn on before it sinks in what direction *on* is? If the crew is standing there turning on, turning on, turning on, oh this one turns on the other way, turning on, turning on....
If we are floating on the surface for a while before descending I switch to my snorkel, as I do upon surfacing. Once I started to descend with my snorkel in my mouth. My mistake was immediately obvious and I switched to my reg.
