Definition
The practice of sailing or cruising along coastlines, anchoring in small, secluded coves and inlets to avoid traffic and explore remote areas.
Etymology
From 'gunk' plus 'hole' (a small anchorage) plus '-ing'. Maritime slang describing the exploration of obscure anchorages, especially popular among cruising sailboats.
Kelly Says
Gunkholing perfectly captures the spirit of cruising—instead of following busy shipping lanes, gunkholers explore tiny unnamed coves marked on old charts, discovering places bigger boats can't reach, proving that sometimes the best adventures are in the gaps between official destinations!
