Trying to get a handle on seasickness.

[fookisan]

I spent a lot of time on boats recently. The first day was seasick, then each day thereafter when retuning to land I felt like I was still on a boat rolling and pitching and did not feel seasick when on the boat that day. Did this for 4 days in a row with my land time still feeling like I was rolling with the waves. Does all it take is a good day sick and then to keep up the jostling each day to keep you from seasickness?

Thanks,

Dan

I wish it was that simple.

I have known people who were sick every time they went to sea, for the entire time they were at sea.

My father would feel queasy for about the first half hour and then he was fine.

Personally, I will sometimes feel it when I am tired or have been eating the wrong things.
