How do I cope with Sea Sickness?

Eat lightly in the morning (try to avoid fatty or rich foods, coffee and alcohol). Toast, fresh or dry fruit, and milk or juice might do the trick.

Dress appropriately for the weather (remember that the weather on water is slightly different - may feel colder or warmer, depending on the amount and direction of the wind). Bring extra clothing with you - the ones you can easily put on or take off in case they become wet.

Get enough rest if at all possible. Being tired also contributes to the queasiness of the sea sickness.

While on the boat try to stay in the cockpit or on the deck - going belowdeck will certainly cause at least slight nausea. Try not to bend - keep your eyes on the horizon!

Keep yourself occupied.. You might want to take medication, although this will make you drowsy.

Always look at the horizon

What to do if I feel sick?

Again, keep yourself busy if possible! Try to eat juicy fruits: apples usually work very well. If you can't eat, try to drink very little amounts of fluid (water is best) every now and then. This is especially important if you already are really sick, and hanging out over the railing - you don't want to become dehydrated, it'll only slow your recovery.

Keep yourself warm, but not too warm. You might want to take medication - you might as well, since you're sick already. It might however make you drowsy, and you're not going to feel well anyway.

If all that fails - don't lose your good spirits! It WILL pass away. And to give you even more reason not to feel embarrassed about this, even the best of the best can get sea sick.
