I will be in St. John in a couple of weeks with my son and daughter, ages 23 and 25. My daughter doesn't do well on boats and gets seasick easily. Any suggestions on what would be the best type of boat if we decide to go to BVI?
Thanks.

The Limnos (www.limnoscharters.com) has big, stable boats, with an upper deck for fresh air. That's gonna be your best bet.

I get seasick as well, and my physician has prescribed me Tranderm Scop. It is a small dime size patch that you put behind your ear and really helps. We own a sailboat in the Islands, and it isn't fun to be sick on your own boat, in calm water! I put it on before I get on the plane, and change it every 2 days as directed. I don't take it off until I get home. It is inexpensive, and easy to get. Sailing, sailing, over the deep blue sea........ Good Luck
