Sounds like fun, Plankton. There is a special atmosphere on a small boat that deserves to be fostered by the right music. Big difference between the high seas and inland waterways, of course. Where are you going to be?

Anyway, my suggestions would be:-

High Seas:-
Sail Away by Enya. Don´t know why, but I feel it fits well with Sloop John B and the other the Beach Boys that BD suggested.
A Salty Dog by Procul Harum. Can´t fail with a song that includes the line, "We sailed for parts unknown to man, where ships come home to die."

Inland Waterways:-
Grantchester Meadows by Pink Floyd. Well, it´s got that swan that comes flapping out of the water that´s sloshing around in the left speaker ...
