The article discusses the influence of those environmental conditions on the human being that may cause sea sickness. Different indexes describing motion sickness are presented. Besides, a mathematical inter-relation describing the effect of waves and design parameters on the motion sickness incidence index is described. The relation has been used for developing design guidelines designers may use at the initial design phase.
