Observed top speed
15.6 kn · 28 Oct 2022 · off Charleston, SC · national archive 2021-25

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.
