yachted
Took the boat
Yachted is the past tense of yacht, meaning to sail or cruise in a yacht.
The verb is uncommon—most people say they went sailing or took the yacht out rather than that they yachted: They yachted around the Mediterranean last summer.
The word carries connotations of wealth and leisure.
