Headed to the Whiskey Wreck today with Josh T. We met up with jwhitlock at Bahama Bob's and walked out to the beach. Waves were running knee-high and visibility looked iffy. We started gearing up in the water and jwhitlock broke his fin strap and had to call the dive. I swam out and hooked the flag to the wreck and Josh and I started to swim around the wreck. Josh T felt sick and thought he would be better on the bottom, but with the surge we had at a max depth of 17', he continued feeling sick. He surfaced and started feeding the fish. Dive was called and I managed 23 minutes of bottom time. Temps in the mid-80sF and visibility was 5-8'.

Ah well, I'll get back soon.

Wow, I get seasick, but not usually that easily. Was the surge worse than yesterday on the Paddlewheeler?

Nope, but Josh seems to get seasick uber easily. Funny as hell when it doesn't cut my dive short

I can relate - I felt like I shouldn't have eaten Macdonalds for breakfast the day I dove the Whiskey. :l: :l: :l:

Hey, last time I dove with SBM I took Bonine...never thought I'd be doing it for a shore dive though.
