day boat
Sailboat without cabin
A day boat is a small sailboat or motorboat designed for outings that return the same day, without sleeping accommodations or extensive provisions.
Day boats prioritize simplicity and ease of handling over the amenities of cruising vessels: We took the day boat out for a few hours on the lake.
The term also appears in fishing contexts for boats making daily trips rather than extended voyages.
