spent a day just using the water transportation around the world?

My wife and I were at Disney World last week and took one day to simply enjoy using the water transportation! It was a lot of fun. We did have to take a bus to get to the Kingdom but then took the boat to Fort Wilderness for breakfast, took the boat from there to the Contemporary, then the boat to Wilderness Lodge, then the launch back to the Kingdom then the launch to GF then the launch to the Poly! then back to the Kingdom to take the ferry :)

After that we had to get on the monorail to Epcot for lunch then used the boats to cruise all the boat transportation there and then bused it back to Old Key West and boated to DTD for dinner, then Port Orleans, then DTD for desert and then back to Old Key West.

it was sooo relaxing and we loved it!
 
I've done each of the water transportation trips that you've done but not all on the same day.
 
I've done this, not for an entire day, but a large part of it. You remind me of a funny incident that happened once. I was waiting for the boat at BWV. The CM went down the line to make sure everyone was getting on a boat that was going where they wanted. When he got to me and asked, as he asked everyone, "Where are you going?", I replied honestly "For a ride on the boat". The dirty look he gave me (I could tell he was thinking "You smart alleck"-or similar) while everyone else laughed, was priceless. The thing was, I WAS-doing what you did.
 
We haven't done all day boat rides, but we do enjoy riding the boats when the weather is nice, slightly cool and a little breezy :) We enjoy the EWP as well.

We have gone to POFQ and walked from there all the way to Riverside and walked all along each main section of buildings (Mansions, Alligator Alley, Pool, Fishing Hole), and taken photos of the sights, ducks, pools, gazebo, etc. and walked back. It's pretty relaxing, the weather was nice.
 

Last trip we weren't in a hurry and wanted to get to EPCOT (from BLT) in an unconventional way...so we walked to MK and took the first boat to the TTC. We were going "against the grain" and had that huge ferry all to ourselves for a private ride. We LOVED it. Of course when we got to the other side, everyone was staring at us. I got the feeling they all thought we were doing something wrong. :-)
