Default If I get "bus sick" will I get seasick?

I bought a 24' cabin in late fall '06 and never used it - had it winterized
for spring '07. Took a bus trip from Connecticut to the NYC boat show, with
a boating club group. I felt very weezy and almost had nausia from the bus
motions. I've never been in a small boat in waves, but wonder is bus motion
sickness similar to seasickness? In vehicles, I'm used to being the driver,
not passenger.

I'd say you'd be more likely.
I've taken day long bus trips and 5 day train trips and end up feeling a
bit off.
On a boat under the right conditions I can be woosy within an hour and
upchucking by the time another hour passes.
If I'm at the helm I can usually fight it off.
