RF 100-400 for whales?

Would you take the RF 100-400 (non weather-sealed lens) on a whale watching trip in Maui?
I will be on a bigger boat I believe. (Not a RIB). Not being a common sea-goer, I’m wondering how the RF 100-400 will be on the R5, or if I should be more concerned about moisture…and thus bring the RF 100-500.
I do have the RF 100-500 weather-sealed lens, but am hesitating on packing the weight.
