Doug, you are so clearly an idiot, it's just amazing that your next
breath doesn't just kill you. ANY unusual motion might make someone
feel sick, whether it be on a boat, car or an amusement park ride.
Inner ear problems are highly variable. I myself get sick on
powerboats, especially larger ones and Suzanne and I both noted we
didn't like the motion of the cat which we sailed in some good chop
near Niantic.
Dr. Doug, please tell us all about motion sickness!

Uh huh. Usually small children and Pekinese dogs.

So, what you're really saying is that you both are sickly &
weak-stomached, prone to upset tummy, and not really suited for all this
sailing stuff on water that gets a bit wavy?

You know, I've been offshore with someone on more than one occasion that was
prone to seasickness, never stopped them from going. Seasickness is a very
poor excuse indeed.

Offshore the wind waves are superimposed on top of long ocean swells.
Its the combination of these two that can get to people who are
normally immune. Most people get used to it within a few days.

No-one is immune. It just takes the right day and the right night before.

I've gotten sick myself on several occasions-hung over. Like I said, I do
know someone prone to seasickness that never let it stand in their way, even
managed an Atlantic crossing. They loved sailing.
Again, a very poor excuse.

Sometimes just big swells can do it. Constantly going up and down like
an elevator... it's no wonder that this component of a ship's motion is
called "heave."

Yep

I've been very lucky, only seasick on a few occasions. One was when I
was on watch in a Navy boiler room, on the lowest level in the burner
alley. The ship was rolling about 20 degrees each way, and while the
motion wasn't too bad down there, watching the bilge water slosh back
and forth and back and forth made my stomach start doing the same. The
other times have been down below when the sea state was up a bit, closed
in the cabin, staring at the chart or trying to fix something.

Now we understand why you won't sail outside of your very sheltered
waters. It sounds a lot like you sailed with an inexperienced
skipper, or perhaps someone who had no sympathy for novices.

Again, are you sure it was a PDQ - which boat was it?

Read that AGAIN, Doug!!! So Jeff, who sadly owns a cat proves you
WRONG!
The best is when you trip eachother up!!!!

Uh, and your point is that you stay in LIS because you get seasick?
Isn't that what everyone is saying? If you get seasick on a cat in
calm weather, the its best you never go cruising. The bendy is the
perfect choice for you.
