Pretty easy really. 1 nm= about 1.1 mile, so speed in mph = 1.1
speed in knots.

1.15 and a bunch of other decimal places, but who cares? When we
sail, we sail for about two hours. 25 minutes to the dock, about 30
minutes to set up, 2 hours sailing, 30 minutes to take down and 25
minutes home. We flake the sail, and wash the boat the next day. We
don't get burned out and we don't get frustrated.

What does thinking in nautical miles have to do with getting burned out or
frustrated?
