What she holds.
None.
How fast she’s gone.
- Observed top speed
- 19.6 kn · 14 Apr 2026 · off Charleston, SC · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- Charleston, SC to Savannah, GA · 9 h 5 m · 8.1 kn average · 12 Apr 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.
