Honestly it sounds like a set up from the show Metalocalypse.  Could be fun if a bit insane.

Metal cruises have been going on for a while. It's amazing how they have been able to  combine several things I really detest into one package.

Boats and loud music are a great mix.

I saw something about this a few months ago. It sounds awesome, especially with Amon Amarth, Ensiferum, Korpiklaani, Nevermore and TYR. Favorite bands of mine.  :D
