I have a buddy who wants to disappear on a ship for a while. Like a whaling ship. Having crazy sea adventures. Probably for about 2-3 months tops.
Is this:
1. Possible
2. Inexpensive.Then.. how.

Rich people pay other people to move their yachts around. A buddy of mine's ex girlfriend used to do that. She'd pick up the boat in San Diego and pilot it to places like Hawaii or Australia.

Backpackers do it all the time. Tell him to go to either A. busy port or B. expensive yacht port. Must have sign around neck saying 'will work for peanuts and doesn't need lift back' - Thats where the adventure really lies!

You can hire on on a fishing boat, depending on where you are, and you'll even get paid decently when it's all over. But there's very little fun involved, it's hard work and pretty dangerous and since you're the lowest man on the totem pole, you'll most definitely be hazed.
Had a couple buddies that went on fishing boats, both here in Massachusetts and in Alaska, and they both said it was awesome and they'd never ever do it again.- the only fun is the end of the day when all is work is done known as "peak" It lasts 5 minutes.capsize
