I think he was here before me, so I don't mind the plug. Just make sure you understand that while their price per bottle is less, they charge more for shipping. $7.90 is their cheapest for mailing 1 bottle while ours runs from $4.99-5.99. So it's actually cheaper from me if you're within 2 timezones. :05:

Also, we're offering free shipping on orders of $50 or more through Friday. Just FYI.

As for the season in Cozumel...I'm hearing that it runs heaviest from mid-April through the end of June. We're actually working on implementing a "sightings" area on our site to allow for customers to post heavily-concentrated areas. It would be a great resource for people planning their trips...if we can get enough input from all of our target areas.

Best,
Jason

Florida's season lasts from March thru August...so YMMV...

Well, I am the one who started this tread. I purchased from Amazon(dermadoctor) and the shipping was $3.95 . The cost for the 4 oz bottle was $12.95 and they sent an additional soap (free). So the total cost was $16.90

Other vendors were charging $12 shipping so I guess you have to evaluate less expensive product cost vs shipping.

At any rate....We have ours and are heading to Cozumel on 5/12-5/23 and hopefully no underwater concerns w/ thimble jellies

Can't wait to get back

My wife doesn't know what motion sickness is. She can sit in a hot boat cabin with no windows in 6 foot seas, with diesel fumes and the smell of ripe fish bait blowing in, reading a book with tiny print and drinking a tepid beer, and it doesn't faze her in the slightest. I at least have to be up on deck with some wind in my face for a while when we first go out to be comfortable.

I have tried just about all the common over the counter seasickness remedies plus seabands, ginger, crackers and so on.... Everyone responds differently to remedies but the only thing that has worked for me is Scopace, which is a prescription medication.

The patch form of this medication also worked for me but I did not like having to keep the patch on for an entire dive trip.
Read the warnings at the site. Fortunately, the only side effect I have felt so far with about 30 uses is dry mouth. I try to stay very hydrated.

But this is perhaps another topic.

Sorry jbjclj. I meant that he seems to have been a member here longer than me...not the thread starter. EDIT

If anyone has any other questions, I'll try to answer them for you.

Best,

Sorry jbjclj. I meant that he seems to have been a member here longer than me...not the thread starter. Our pricing is actually coming down for peak season. And the deals are excellent if you're buying in volume packs.

Best,
Jason

Jason, we should liven up your posts, i.e. complete your Dive Info and Profile which will reflect on every post. Maybe put something like this in your Sig, with a hyperlink rather than link...
