Consistantly Crashes While Sailing

While sailing between islands the game will crash. If I island hop and don't spend a lot of time on the water the game won't crash. I can also go anywhere on land with no issue. Only while on long journeys in a boat crashes the game. Usually 5-10 min at sea. When logging back in I spawn back at my bed. My inventory has the items I've had since my last save. Sometimes my boat will remain in the ocean where the game crashed, but not always. I have lowered the graphics and changed PC settings but still have the issue. The window that comes up when closing the game says Valheim.exe is not responding.
