" ANYTHING CARBONATED !!! " I once blew a coca cola out my nose... I was chuming foam. I think if your the kinda person who gets sea sick.. you just gotta live in it. It kicks my ass. Not everytime, but a lot of the time. I can tell projectile puking storys that would have you chuming out of sympathy. If I take Dramamine... my puke tastes just like it. One time at Rivers Inlet, I puked so hard I thought I had ripped my guts open.. It was red. I was freaking out until my buddy reminded me that it was the red wine we had with the dinner they made us on arrival. They gave us some stuff called Bonine ?? I think anyway.. and it worked but puts you in a coma like trance that makes you want to sleep all day. Another time down in Mexico, went out on a day cruise boat with the wife. Took a little snooze and woke up puking. Some guy from Jersey is filming me blowing over the side of the boat with his cam corder. The boat got about a 100 yards from shore and I tell tell the caption... " I'm outa here "... jumped off, swam to shore.. swimming and puking at the same time.. got on the beach and walked 8 miles back to town.

Other times I am fine. I have been out on lots of boats fishing in Mexico and had no problems. However, everytime I get into the pacific ocean, no matter where, I start puking.

The last time was a couple of years ago out of Depot bay in Oregon. Went out Salmon fishing with the kids. I puked hard and long. I went up on the high deck and asked the guy running the boat whats best to keep away sea sickness. He says " next time, have the guy let you drive the boat for awhile, it takes your mind off puking "... So I said "cool, let me drive this boat"... he says " I told you next time... not my boat "... It was bad. Got back to the dock and felt somewhat better. Later back at the house we had rented on the beach, I was sitting in a lawn chair watching the surf break and it made me puke again.

I have puked on water so flat you could water ski on it... I have puked in rolling swells.. I have puked in big waves... In fact, I want to get sick just thinking about it so I better stop right now.

Geez... I think you asked how to prevent it, not what can happen. I hope someone gives you a good answer cause I'll try anything
