This should cure her for the day and she should be good to go!


or if she is really worried about getting sick, she can stay on the beach and ill fill her spot lol

Agree with both cures

Also, try telling her a little nookie the night before prevents seasickness.

Holy smokes Mick.. I thought I was pretty tough.. but that breakfast makes my guts do trick shots off my adam's apple just sitting here at my desk

A good nights sleep usually helps. But for dinner the night before eat something heavy. meats and carbs usually works. If you do get the dizzys, just let it fly. but save the last mouth full and swallow it back down. there some sort of madness thats involved but it worked for me.

My wife gets sea sick just looking at the water. The best remedy I found is to leave her home and take my son. Works out great!

Exactly. Maybe some drinking the night before, two hours of sleep if I'm lucky, porkroll egg and cheese sammich, plenty of coffee, smokes, and breathe in the fresh diesel and green crab scent in the fall. That's what makes up part of a fun fishing day for me.

Sometimes a nice cigar to share with those that look a lil green really makes my day.

Walmart. 100 Equate motion sickness pills for $4.27. 2 pills when you get up everytime you go on a boat no matter how flat the seas are supposed to be. Maybe take another in the middle of the day if the seas are rough.Taking them the night before is a waste. Insurance that your fishing trip won't be ruined for under 10 cents. I've never gotten sleepy from them.

Triptone

Does not make you tired.

The best over the counter out there.
