The 22-year-old actor had to learn how to handle a boat for his role in new movie 'Charlie St. Cloud' and though he found it difficult, he would love to pursue it further and is now planning an epic trip with his father.
He said: "Sailing is sort of hard. You can't just say 'I'm going sailing this weekend'. There is a lot of preparation that goes into it. You need to get a boat and a crew.
"It's not like surfing where you just grab your board and go. But, I'd love to do it in the future. I'd like to go some long-distance sailing. I think that would be really fun. Me and my dad want to do that."
Zac's dream sailing trip would be to the islands of Hawaii – but he is unsure if he would make the return journey.
He added to TeenHollywood.com: "I don't know where I would go but the sail to Hawaii is supposed to be really fun. It takes about ten days to get there. That would be a big commitment. You'd need a pretty devoted crew.
"That would take weeks and then we wouldn't want to leave the island for the big sail back. But somewhere with clear blue water would be really fun to sail."
