be seasick

Camilla was so startled, she forgot to be seasick.

SOS Mediterranee, the aid group that operates the Aquarius, said Thursday the Italian coast guard boat leading the convoy decided to skirt Sardinia’s east coast after high waves caused exhausted migrants aboard to be seasick.

Bad weather has forced the convoy of ships now carrying them to take a detour after high waves caused some of the exhausted migrants aboard to be seasick.

The Courier Mail newspaper reported that the woman had appeared to be seasick before she fell from the vessel amid rough seas.

"I do suffer a little bit from seasickness, so I'm just hoping that I'm not going to be seasick because I know what it's like. If you get it bad it can just knock you out," he says.
