I already told him that, but he still keeps talking about
seasickness. I'm worried he's going to 'talk himself into
it'. Thus, the ginger snaps might just help ease his mind,
more than his stomach.

If you are talking about him going on a cruise
ship, then I'd tell him not to be concerned about
it. We've been on about 5 different cruises in up
to 35' seas, and those huge ships just don't move
around that much.

YMMV,

I have a non-boating friend who's going on a cruise next
week. He's concerned about seasickness. I told him
ginger is
a good cure. I bought him a box of Ginger Snaps ( more
for a
joke ). Should he start munching on these before he
steps
onboard or wait till / if he feels bad?

Scotty, if your friend wants to follow the old belts and suspenders
approach, or if like me he doesn't like ginger snaps, one of the pills
can work (I use bonine before), or one of the electric (relief band) or
non-electric pressure point bands.

Cruises are expensive. If your friend goes prepared, just not worrying
about things may be all that is needed.
