See the discussion in this post: “How do we call (something) in English?” Would you mind editing your question to “What would you call this type ....?” Thanks! | |

The roughness of the ride has little to do with it.) None of the terms would be appropriate for a trip in a standard power boat. "Cruse" is a term that can fit, where the ride is essentially a pleasure ride of some length (hours or days), vs one focused on sailing, fishing, water skiing, etc. | |
