What she holds.
None.
How fast she’s gone.
- Observed top speed
- 16.4 kn · 8 Jun 2026 · off Cape May, NJ · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- New York, NY to Baltimore, MD · 38 h 11 m · 3.8 kn average · 10 Jan 2026
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.
