Yup. Time on the water cures sea sickness. Ever watch deadliest catch? Most of the greenhorns/ camera crew get pretty sick for the first few days, but they get over it. I'd get sick pretty frequently when I first started doing this. Haven't felt sick on the kayak for a few years now, probably because I'd be too stubborn to come in when I felt ill. The weird part? I can spend all day in the kayak bobbing around in the open water like a cork, but I got seasick on my last cruise as we were barely pulling out of the harbor. Different motion I guess.
