I've been once. I've never been seasick, but went ahead and took some

motion sickness meds ahead of time to be safe. They say that once you start getting sick, it's over. Obviously wear plenty of sunscreen. I'd even take a long sleeve sun shirt or whatever you call it. Wear shoes that won't slip too much.

It was a good time. We went 3 days. First day was way offshore for tuna, and we only caught a handful. The second day was closer in, and we caught Spanish Mackerel, shark, ribbon fish, and I even got a small baracuda. That day was a lot of fun. 3rd day was a wash due to weather.
