Capt,
  Have you gone sailing since vestibular issues showed up? Any problems with that?  I've been assuming my days of deep sea fishing may be over.
Regards,

I haven't been sailing, more due to chronic headaches thaan vestibular issues.  My friend from House, Maryjane, and her husband Mike are cruisers and took their 34 foot sailboat through the Great Lakes and down the ICW to North Carolina this past year.They plan on picking the boat, which is drydocked in NC, this fall, and crusing the Bahamas. MJ does absolutely great on the boat and credits her great balance to living on the boat. She visited me this fall and we went for an easy hike-easy for her tough for me--again cuz of headache--and you would never know by her gait that she ever had a problem. I sure wouldn't count out the deep sea fishing so long as you keep your residual balance system in good shape.
