I found this in an old thread. It's called the Sea Pump... it's kind of a Underwater drinking apparatus... have any of you used it?
I'm looking for some kind of method for drinking underwater during long dives.... but the SCUDA is not an option... I though of using a camelbak or something like that... but this product seemed interesting.... any opinions?
Here is the website:

I'd just use a camel-pack (or similar hydration pack), if it were me. You could just remove your reg and take a sip when needed. Not only that, but a simple camel-pack is only about $40 and you can use it for other stuff as well. I got a Blackburn Hydro-Pack from CampMor for $18 or so. It's ugly as sin but it works great.
My $.02 worth.

But when I get thirsty or dry mouthed underwater... I just pull my regulator out of my mouth and rinse my mouth out with some salt water...
Works for me, but I kinda like the taste of seawater...

I would just use a Camel Pack or a simular system. This just adds complexity and failure points to your regulator. JMHO.

They are cheap (about $8) and they work. Fill it with fresh water or gatoraid mixed 50% with water for rehydration.
