The window receiver times a gate to about a second; the national archive carries one fix a minute, interpolated to about two. Her two bests are two different measurements and are never ranked against each other.
What she holds.
None.
How fast she’s gone.
- Observed top speed
- 19.8 kn · 16 Jan 2026 · off Freeport, Bahamas · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- New York, NY to Savannah, GA · 55 h 39 m · 11.1 kn average · 9 Apr 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.
