At sea? Runs up to see location after sea-voyage, perhaps (6)
I believe the answer is:
abroad
'at sea?' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for abroad that I've seen before include "Overseas; (of rumour) widely current" , "in France, say" , "in the field" , "to France, maybe" , "In another country, not at home" .)
