Agreed, we took the meds for both ways just to be sure. But still once I had to finish the lunch early, head to the bed and have a boost pill. About third of the passengers were pretty absent for those days..
Even if the sea isn't rough, the boats aren't that stable -- they have been made to be work horses, not pleasure ships.
