sailing voyage
Wind-powered sea trip
A sailing voyage is a journey by sailboat or sailing ship, typically covering a significant distance over open water.
The term emphasizes both the mode of travel—wind-powered rather than motorized—and the scale of the undertaking: They embarked on a sailing voyage across the Atlantic.
Weekend trips rarely qualify; the phrase suggests adventure, endurance, and time at sea.
