cruise
Leisurely sea trip
To cruise is to travel at a steady, unhurried pace—a ship cruising the Caribbean, a car cruising at highway speed.
A cruise is such a journey, especially a vacation voyage: We're taking a cruise to Alaska.
To cruise for something is to search casually, often while moving: teenagers cruising for a party.
In gay slang, to cruise is to seek casual sexual partners, typically in public spaces.
Cruising implies leisure and ease—cruise control maintains speed without effort, and to cruise to victory is to win without struggle.
