None.

Observed extremes

How fast she’s gone.

Observed top speed
19.9 kn · 2 Jan 2026 · off Norfolk, VA · NOAA archive
Fastest leg
Baltimore, MD to New York, NY · 43 h 13 m · 3.3 kn average · 2 Jan 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.
