I'm well stocked with Gravol, for those Americans on the list that might not be familiar it's a really effective anti-nauseant .. makes you drowsy though. I'm a shitty sailor, I get seasick easily. My first time on a keelboat was when I signed up for lessons. I was the second person on the boat to feed the fish that day. I came back, the other guy didn't. All good since then but I keep plenty of gravol on board. I'm hoping I just get over it in time. Maybe the name change will cinch it.
