What she holds.
None.
How fast she’s gone.
- Observed top speed
- 20.3 kn · 18 Jan 2026 · off Wilmington, NC · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- Jacksonville, FL to Port Everglades, FL · 33 h 35 m · 7.9 kn average · 26 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.
