Is there a greater likelyhood of getting motion sickness on a flying
bridge vs an express boat because you're higher off the deck?



Absolutely there is, especially aboard a small FB boat like the one you
have in mind. The Skipjack is a fine boat for what it is, really,
but...if you are susceptible to motion sickness, you will get it up there.

Most of the smaller FBs roll in a beam sea, and the smaller and narrower
the boat, the worse it is.



Thanks Harry you confirmed what I suspected.
