Comprehensive "stay warm" plan

[Cacia]

ah, "pre-charge" the wetsuit!

Of course, you could accomplish the same goal by peeing in it...

yea, a lot of our boats do not have heads so the pee issue is paramount. I save up just for that purpose.

 

[jeckyll]

yup. have you ever traipsed around in stilettos? ...guess not. No Birkenstock's for me baby.

I can honestly say that I've never worn stilettos ... let alone traipsed

I prefer to get in the water before peeing in the suit. Don't want it running out on the deck. Plus, a good flush midway through the dive is a temporary core warmer

sidenote: Urine is sterile. just knowing that makes me feel better.

I thought it was the warmth that did that

yes, stupid. But there is nothing dirty about urine until it has been sitting on pavement or somewhere. In your wetsuit its just ...an electrolyte solution...like Gatorade. OOOHHH..., feel better I get it! warm, feel better. sorry Jeff. never mind.

this was a perfectly serious and legitimate thread.

I was unable to pee in my suit last weekend. Not because of the clean or not clean issue. I was trianed in advanced survival (recycling fluids). It was a very painful swim back my bladder was very cramped. Must have lost a liter afterwards. Haven't been in that much pain since after a surgery and they remove the cath too soon.
