I had the 100hrs service done (it was time) and then they fixed why it cut out on me last time out, I'd like to take the boat out and run it but, the AC guys are here.

Just wanted to say hi to MD & Divergirl4U who I met at ScubaBoard Invades the Keys. Sorry I didn't get to meet everyone else, but it was great. Had the seas been a little calmer, my daughter would have been able to get a little more experience than just the one dive before she was wiped from seasickness...

Nice to meet you 2 Steve and happy diving ... BTW triptone many divers use it to prevent seasickness.
She knows about it but hasn't jumped in yet...I'll be sure and introduce you when we get together to dive. Lil'Sis wasn't at the Keys was she?Missdirected:Seasickness, aaack :arrr: Is your girl on the board? BTW thanks for coming up and saying hello

I used Bonine (same stuff) and it didn't work for me after sitting out the second tank...
....the seas were really sloppy, not a regular wave motion but up, down, calm one minute and smash the next, no rhythm, no cycle that you could get used to...just really mixed up...Kinda like it would be in a washing machine

No. Glad she wasn't quite honestly. A little too advanced for her yet. How old is your girl?
Did you take the seasick med after you had already gotten on the boat? the reason I ask is most find it doesn't help at that point. You must take it before gettting on the boat. As always there are a few people that are exceptions to the norm but from what I have gathered - take it before
Take it the night before and then again in the morning before you board. Also watch what you eat. Avoid grease and acid, that means no bacon, no orange juice and no coffee. Do eat something. Dry toast is an excellent choice, ginger snaps is even better. On the boat; stay off the bridge, don't read, get fresh air and watch the horizon. Between dives, rinse the salt water out of your mouth. Drink a ginger ale.
