up shore or upshore

Are any one of these correct? Can I use up shore?

The boat moved up shore.

The boat moved upshore.

Thanks

I think you mean 'upstream' and 'downstream' if you are talking about travel along a river. I'm not familiar with "upshore". Or maybe you mean "The boat moved toward the shore".

You could use this:
The boat moved parallel to the shore with / against the currents.
