I realize that it probably varies person to person, but if you take a ferry and you worry about motion sickness, I can vouch for the effectiveness of Meclizine. I buy it under the name of Bonine.

I am *very* susceptible to motion sickness if I haven't been on a boat for a while, and this stuff works 100% for me every time if I take it about an hour ahead of time.

In my other life I drive dive boats and I was taking this stuff every day until I acclimated to being on the water again. I never had a problem with seasickness unless I forgot to take it. (We're talking 5 days a week, 6 hours a day on a boat.) If it works as well for you as it does for me, you'll be fine.
