Terry's Word Riddle of the Day--Can you find the answer?

Question

This last summer we decided to go the beach for vacation. We ended up at Mustang Island. We rented a sailboat and went sailing. My wife got seasick about the time we got to the lee side of the seawall and to add to my problems, my daughter took one look at my wife and started to turn green. When we finally got offshore things were a bit calmer, and because I was odd man out as to the nausea I had to rig the sails for our sail on the sea.

The above has one or two classics. Can you name them?
