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
- 24.8 kn · 15 May 2026 · off Seattle, WA · NOAA archive
- Fastest leg
- Oakland, CA to Long Beach, CA · 57 h 38 m · 5.4 kn average · 20 May 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.
