Start a sea journey (3,4)

I believe the answer is:

set sail

(Other definitions for set sail that I've seen before include "have started journey" , "Embark on a voyage by ship" , "Begin a voyage" , "Leave for (sea) voyage" , "left land behind" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
