People are getting seasick on this ferry. I am not one of them (I don't get seasick, I'm very comfortable on open water) but the ferry staff have checked on me twice.

I can only assume they've seen me stand up and made the wrong guess

I was on the Rottnest ferry as a wee lad and went to the toilet. I became airborne mid-stream multiple times.
