Scopolamine patch for longer trip but need to put it on couple hours before u go. Bonine is good for ahort trips and ginger tabs do work well for upset stomach

Can buy it at walmart, comes in a blue box. Sorta like dramamine, but better imo.

Bonine night before and morning of. I usually take ginger as well just to play it safe. Motion sickness can turn a trip into a nightmare quickly.

Dramamine works - original formula. Or stropolomine patches. I went on 6 deep,sea trips with no problems NOT using anything. The seventh trip got me. Damn. I use Dramamine now.

The forecast is worsening. How about bonine and the patch together?

I doubt you are going this weekend if there is a tropical wave heading our way. And you're over thinking it, it's all in you head.

dramamine works for me

Non drowsy Dramamine or bonine should work – night b4 and morning of. Hydrate and avoid alcohol. For patches u need a script and scopolamine (the active ingredient) has a real strange affect on some – it’s a hallucinogen (has been used in high doses as a truth serum). I would try the over the counter, get lots of sleep, Gatorade, water, juice etc and no f’n bananas on the boat they are bad luck and you will only PO the cap’n and mate

Last time I went, I got sick. I knew better than to go in the cabin. When I got in there, a deckhand was using an electric skillet to make egg sandwiches. I immediately threw up. Luckily I made it to the bathroom. I would have given someone all the money I had to get a helicopter out there and take me off that boat. I had gone plenty of times prviously and never had any trouble, as long as I took Dramamine the day before and day of. This last time I only took it the day of and apparently it hadn't gotten into my system.
