Sailing while tripping?

Has anyone done this before?
I can take out a small - medium four man boat (quite uncapable of capsizing) which will be helmed by a friend. And i was just thinking of doing it on a fairly windy sunny morning sitting on the front of the boat with a guitar for a few hours, possibly do some swimming too.
Does tripping and water/boats go well together? i've never experienced this before apart from being high a few times which was fun.

as long as your not prone to motion sickness I think it would be amazing,feel the sun the waves, smell the air, sounds like a blast

I'd say as long as you're wearing a life jacket and your friend is sober it should be great!

Good idea man, sounds fun as fuck. I wouldn't take a heroic dose though. Yuu don't want to be that typical scare tactic story of a guy drowning on shrooms because he thought he could walk on water....

You should consider two things... How comfortable are you sailing? How experienced are you at tripping?
If you are a novice at either, I would say its not a good idea. But, I can imagine it might be interesting.... But what if you don't like it or get bored or confused... Sounds like you are locked into it... No plan B
Wear sun screen, life jacket and don't get dehydrated....

I'm quite safe on knowledge when it comes to sailing, I'm not that much of a veteran when it comes to tripping since I only do it once every three months or so and not for very long.
Thanks for the tips, i'll try measure up my doses to make sure I don't start thinking theres sharks or even sea monsters in the water.

I will be disappointed if you don't choose to experience such an epic journey.
I think it would be perfect

Could be awesome, could go terribly wrong!
One thing's for certain, and that's you will have an amazing story to tell afterwards.

I love water and tripping.....just tripped yesterday afternoon on 3.5G dried Eq's....keep in mind, I live on the water. I was quite happy that I arrived at my favorite island before they really kicked in, because the come up was strong and the confusion that accompanies this was also strong. Keep in mind that this was during the week and there was very little boat traffic and I know these waters like the back of my hand. That said.....I was happy to be on land when the trip started....something as simple as a jet ski can become overwhelming.
Sailing is much more difficult than a jet ski.....but you also can't go 60 mph.lol... I would certainly want someone sober in control of the boat. Also, have shallow water nearby to swim in...it is hot as a motherfucker out there, at least on the east coast. Wear a hat and plenty of sunscreen and have plenty of non alcoholic beverages to drink. Also, does the boat have alternative power? It would suck to be stuck out from shore with no wind. I say go for it....just do a low to moderate dose.

I got to learn a little about sailing at a YMCA camp I worked at and I miss sailing. It truly is one of the most calming activities I've participated in. I wish I still worked there to have access to keep the hobby alive.
