Peppermint Schnaps,

Dont think so, you would be sick before numb.

Wild Turkey,
Maybe, but really not enough kick.


or any decent rum.

Yeah, but getting numb fast might require 151 or better.

What do you think would be the best medical booze to have onboard for
emergencys? Like a hook in the hand, a few stitches, setting a broken
arm
ect...

I wish I had used the bacarrdi 151 instead of waiting and going to
the hospital ER late at night when I had a hook in my thumb, the hook
entered at the quick and wanted to poke out of the knuckle but did not
break thru the skin, i tried like hell to pull it on thru but couldent
get it thru because the pain almost made me passout, seems booze is an
excellent way to ignore pain in a fix. The ER shot it up with novacane
and used pliers to pull it thru. 385 dollars. If your a few days
offshore with a simple accident a bottle would be nice

151 is strong but whats better?

Were is ol Thom when ya need him.........
