What she holds.
None.
How fast she’s gone.
- Observed top speed
- 19.3 kn · 5 Jan 2026 · off Georgetown, SC · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- Savannah, GA to Charleston, SC · 16 h 35 m · 4.4 kn average · 3 Jan 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.
