Feed stick

Does anyone have any clever ideas for the design of a feed stick for longer races? I've used a small aluminum pot on the end of a broomhandle in the past, but it's a bit short/small and not great if the water is rough. Also, ideally I'll have my bottle(s) attached by string to the stick so I can drink from them and then drop them, but what to do about things like pills (e.g. seasickness pills)? Any other thoughts appreciated. -LBJ

    I have probably done more open water races than any one, we used paper cups and threw them back into a boat. Or a feeding station drink and throw back on the feeding station. Hey if you get sick just bring it up and get going again. When you have some one beside you bringing up it just looks yucky but don't stop to look at it.
