What she holds.
None.
How fast she’s gone.
- Observed top speed
- 18.9 kn · 30 Apr 2026 · off Norfolk, VA · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- Savannah, GA to Charleston, SC · 8 h 6 m · 9.1 kn average · 21 Feb 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.
