Would a shiba inu be OK for a trip to the beach on a boat this size? http://sfbayadventures.com/images/outrage17b.jpg

I take my Shiba Inu on boats all the time (speed boats, day cruisers, ski boats and fishing boats). She even goes Kayaking with me. She is used to the motion now and will gladly jump in the boat, but the first time out was rough and she did panic a bit. I now make her wear a lifevest as she will jump in the water after seeing seals, when close to shore, or near a dock. The vest has a handle on top for easy lifting.
Be patient on the first time out. Comfort her and DO NOT throw her into the water. Have fun!

Should be fine as long as the dog can be kept safely under control
Get a doggy life jacket

I don't think she should be on boats because she an get sea sick or just regular sick.
