ANSWER 1

Score 11


Sailing, or boat-trip.

You could use "voyage" or "journey" too but I am assuming from your analogy with "flight" that you're looking for something that can only be used in relation to boats.




ACCEPTED ANSWER

Score 10


I don't know about your flight but my cruise starts at 2 pm.

Other than cruise, you may also use "voyage" or "sail" to mean a trip by boat or ship.




ANSWER 3

Score 6


It's not exactly the same, but you could say something like:

I set sail at 2:00 PM.

We will set sail at 2:00 PM.




ANSWER 4

Score 2


I've heard "My launch is at 2:00pm."
