What she holds.
None.
How fast she’s gone.
- Observed top speed
- 22.9 kn · 17 Apr 2026 · off Cape Hatteras, NC · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- Baltimore, MD to New York, NY · 35 h 31 m · 4.0 kn average · 24 Apr 2026 · to the hour
From our own position archives, with reasonableness checks: a plausible top speed over a corroborated window, a direct leg between two named places. A bound carries no second fix to confirm it and is labelled as one.
