Default Sikness and Windlass

1: Is Sturgeron available there. It is the best stuff
2: 45# is a hell of a lot to haul by hand. How big is crew? If sufficient
crew, go with manual windlass. If single-handed, electric
3. SailMail

Greetings All,

I would like to get your opinion(s) please.

Firstly, besides the commercial drug option, what can I give my Son (18)

to
stop or reduce his sea sickness?
This is a real problem as in January 2004 we plan to sail from Richards

Bay
in South Africa to Brazil and then onto Seattle USA via Panama.
We just can not seem to find a remedy that suits him (poor devil).

Secondly, in your opinion, how important is it to have a Windlass

installed
to haul the Dainforth anchor (45kg - 99lb)?

And lastly, what will be our best (and cheapest) option to send and

receive
e-mails while at sea (text only)?

Many thanks,

Errol
Atlantis 36 (Far Canal)
