Being on a boat is the ultimate burst of freedom. In planes and cars, you’re in an enclosed space, cut off from all the smells and sights. On a boat, with wind, sun and the sea spray brushing your hair, you get a sense of new horizons, and how the ocean has offered opportunity for travel throughout humankind’s history.
Ginger is a magic substance. It takes a lot to make me seasick but it can happen to the most hardened sailor. If we know it’s going to be a rough day, I’ll take a couple of ginger pills, and have ginger chews on hand to suck every 15 minutes. It’s also good on planes, trains and automobiles. Don’t wait until you’re really sick - you have to take it before you’re nauseous.
