Either a half or whole Dramamine 30 minutes before sailing works for me. If it's nasty, I take another when I leave the inlet.

Do you have to decide what days are "spongeworthy"?

Everyone is different and I dont get seasick at all so I cant help on meds but what I do each morning I go out is before I have a sip of coffee is eat a banana and a couple tums. calms my stomach and keeps it settled all throughout the day, until the 5 seconds right before I walk in the door
