Doesn't fenergan knock you out? People use it on kids when going on a flight makes them sleep through it..
I dont use anything as a rule but on a cruise to Antarctica in a fairly rolley boat (up to 5m seas and 60 knots wind) we took half a Fenergan(antihistamine) the night before big sea days, worked a treat, slept well an didnt get sick when many using other preventions did(wife got the info on using these from a GP, different size dose tablets available, we were taking half of the larger dose)

kwells work for me on foul days, but you must take em 10 to 20 minutes before you get into the rough water.
once you get into the rough, they aren't as effective.
I spent 2 months on a yacht, and we had no pills to take. I found i was usually a bit sick for the first day or 2 at sea. but keeping busy and looking around at the horizon was ok. After a few days I only got crook if i was chopping vegies for dinner, or trying to do something close at hand, staring to long at the compass whilst steering.
fish in the river. Or kwells and xxxx gold.
A mate likes Mars Bars but quite a few find Nexium very helpful. It is a prescription drug for heartburn/acid reflux. Sort of puts a coating on the old guts. Fear is also very good. Go faster? lol.
I am a lucky one, never been seasick. However, when I did the trip on the endeavor recently, there were about half a dozen people who got seasick. About the 3rd day in, had a crew meeting on deck, captains says "you will get over it, I promise. We have a secret trick to help". After the meeting, he pulls out a big bucket of chupa-chups and hands them too all those who are sick. I couldn't believe it, the next day not one single person with sea sickness on board. Even when we got the force 10 gale, a few got queasy, but no one was sick. We were not on a day trip, at sea for a couple of weeks, so may not be useful here. Might be worth a try though.
Just for the record, as a precaution, I took some seasick tables based on the recommendation for sailing in the southern ocean. I took 3 different types, just in case. I ended up offering the pills to the people who were sick, just so they could try something different. None of the pills worked on anyone who took them.
Packet of Shapes or other dry biscuits. I don't get seasick personally but often feel a bit queasy when I've got my head down rigging lines etc & biscuits work a treat.
