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

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.

Bonine works great for me and I ALWAYS get sick sailing offshore but only
on Day 1 of a cruise. The Bonine makes me sleepy but it gets me through
Day 1 even in pretty rough weather.

We took this beautiful blonde woman, mid 20's, in this wonderful metallic
green thong bikini out past Ft Sumter into the Atlantic, but still in
between the jetties last year. She had supermodel in her genes. Every man
aboard was smiling until she started puking heavily over the side. We came
about and headed for the calmest water we could find for her, but it was
too late. Thong or no thong, she looked awful that way...(c;

Start Bonine the day before you go to sea. I stop it on Day 2 of the
cruise and it works great.

Yeah, bent over is one thing, bent over and hurling their guts up just
doesn't qualify as a turn-on.

I was driving the Amel under sail around the harbor, on another nice day
cruise. She laid on her belly on a towel up under the main in front of me
on the port side.

I wouldn't have even notice our collision course with a 950' containership,
especially after she released the clip on the back of that metallic green
top!

"Navigator's Pointing Device for lining up the boat to closely sail around
a race bouy. You can move the girl to account for tide current drift or
the side slipping of the keel in heavy winds.

No, this is when she's laying on her belly in front of the helm always with
her head towards the bow so she can look up and see where we're going. The
view from the helm will take your breath away in that thong.....(c;
