Lucky man. I'd be sea sick the first day of bad weather, every trip, and it would take me about a day to stabilise and then my sea legs would be good to go for 4 months.

I have often tried to analyse Mal de Mer in a logical way and have tried all sorts of tablets and various remedies given by shipmates. Tablets work mostly, but drowsiness can be a problem. Homespun or natural remedies somewhat less successful, Dry toast and Guinness?, Ginger Nut biscuits?, tinned spaghetti?, an apple and a banana? none were very good.

I would be interested if any other shipmate suffered likewise and what was their fool proof remedy. ( Sitting under an apple tree will not be accepted).
