Only when there is swell. I've been crook at Shoreham a couple of times when the swell was rolling through the western entrance. I'm long gone before the wind waves get big enough to cause seasickness, they're enough trouble for the kayak when they're only 50cm or so.

Sea Sickness is a sh!t - I don't normally suffer myself and have never got crock in the kayak ( I have sailing one night off Wilsons Prom )

Winchbitch ( Mal ) and I fish together a lot and have been out in some less than ideal conditions many times and he never seamed to get crock untill we were out in some large but gental swell off point leo

I don't know how he will go Saturday week at Portland - with a few newer guys coming on the trip we may find a few more that don't Handel swell to well

are you on the Portland trip I think the long range has 2.5 meter swell atm

Yep, I'll be there. Staying in a cabin with Westy and Lobo so if nothing else I should pick up a few good fishing tips.

2.5m of swell will be fun, I'll definitely be taking Scott's suggestion on board as Kwells on their own don't seem to cut the mustard. I reckon there might be a few burley trails leading to a kayak or two over that weekend though.

Nice job again Goony.

Consider a squid strip a couple of metres under a float next time you're out there :P

I don't really trust those sorts of things, I think I'll stick to taking drugs
