I just did a trip for a few days out of Seward and most of the guys had issues with sea sickness. They took a medicine called Bonine that is over the counter and they swore by it. Even the captain took it. Apparently the key is to take it the day before. No drowsiness according to these guys. Bonine works for me 100%....I take one the night before, one first thing waking up before fishing and maybe one more halfway thru the trip...
She never made it past the bedroom door, what was she aiming for...?
She's gone shootin..

If you can’t get a script for the scopolamine patch just ask for meclizine at any Walmart pharmacy. It’s same thing as Bonine and a lot cheaper. They’ll usually have a bigger bottle behind the counter which is cheaper still.

I've used the scapolomine a few times with no real problems. The only side effect I noticed was dry mouth. I'll trade that for sea sickness any day. Everyone is different when in comes to medication side effects.

Never been sea sick. But my wife has. She tried the patches and the Velcro wrist pressure points.
Finally settled on a mouth spray. Vitamotion spray, worked better than anything else. You can wait until you start feeling queasy then a couple of sprays on the inside of your checks and your fixed. Hasbeen

I have used scapolomine for years. It has worked well and I’ve had no side effects.

Lol Scopolamine patch, the modern version of the cotton ball in the earhole for retards.  If you rub your eyes with the foil part, you get the added bonus of making everyone think youre tripping acid

Lived in San Diego for a while and used Bonine (non prescription strength Antivert) when on long range fishing boats worked better than Dramamine.

there are some that dramamine does not work for or bonine. For the most part my wife is one. If its bad out, the patch is the only thing but she doesn't like the side effects. But the others work for mild days and car sickness and plane rides.,
Some folks it bothers more than others.
