The only problem I've witness in May, is the "pica pica" problem. Seasafe seems to work for some - I used it but wimped out and got out of the boat after Tulu was stung on the neck.

OK, help me out here please. Since I don't even qualify as a "newbie" since I've yet to set foot on AC for the first time, what is "pica pica" and also, what is Seasafe? Sorry for all the mundane questions.

Mike, You can buy Seasafe at dive shops. Remember to put it on your whole body especially UNDER your bathingsuit since the little buggers like to "hide" underneath the suit. Do a topic search on pica pica and you can read lots of experienced posters thoughts on the subject.

If one gets stung by them, is there a preferred treatment?
