None.

Observed extremes

How fast she’s gone.

Observed top speed
23.8 kn · 30 Mar 2026 · off Cape Hatteras, NC · NOAA archive
Fastest leg
Charleston, SC to Savannah, GA · 16 h 50 m · 4.4 kn average · 28 Jun 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.
