I very rarely get thirsty at all. When I do drink something , it's generally not cause I'm thirsty or think 'ooh yeah, I'd love a drink' but because I'm aware I haven't had anything to drink all day and don't want to get dehydrated and die.
90% of the time I'm forcing myself to drink.
At sea, especially in hot climates I'm drinking water all the time (VLCC engine rooms are equipped with water fountains) because so much is lost sweating. on the Pluto Glory (which was trading in the Red Sea) we even had isotonic sports drinks!
