Default Seasickness

Ironically, yesterday I was looking up an old episode of

Myth Busters
(Does pickup truck tail gate down increase mileage) and

ran across
their session on sea sickness remedies. Ginger was the

only thing
they tried that did work. Not sure if there is any benefit

to taking
it early but I think it works even after you start to

feal queasy.
Most use tablets with water.

Course if you're bloated with cookies when you go

aboard......

And of course you need to drink milk with those cookies.



No personal experience. Have never been sea sick,

although slightly
queasy when a diesel leak put some raw diesel in the

bilge.

The only time I felt queasy was anchored in a storm, closed
up cabin, with an alcohol stove cooking spaghetti. Not a
good combination.
