MaryT Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hi Everyone, My name is Mary , I live in Uk and was implanted (unilateral) with Opus 2 about 5-6 years ago. It has changed my life! So i have just been toddling along ! enjoying what i can, (phone and music are not great ) but now i want an adventure! I have booked a trip on a "tall ship" at christmas, and now i am in a panic. I am 65yrs never been sailing before, and dont know how to protect my CI. That is the main reason for my post, Do I take it off and go without while on deck? I have ordered some waterproof covers from Med-el and special batteries, the head band seems to be for a different processor. Can anyone offer me some practical help and advice please. thanks MaryT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HearPeers Heroes Kara of Canada Posted September 12, 2017 HearPeers Heroes Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Hi Mary! Nice to meet you!! I have a Sonnet and I use the headband for it sometimes. Plus waterwear. It really depends on how wet you will get. A headband and rain coat may be all you need unless you plan to go overboard!! Lol. Make sure you have a drying kit with you. If no electricity you can get one that doesn't need any. Med El makes one that uses drying pucks. I have that fir camping. @Mary Beth may have more tips for you. She enjoys the ocean!
