Default Super Servant on Discovery Channel

Anyone see the program on Super Servant on Discovery channel tonight? Very
interesting show but I thought it only ran trans Atlantic routes. That run
was Ft. Lauderdale to St. Thomas. I can see Calais or Gibraltar to Antigua
but an average fee of $7,000 to transport your boat on a route that can be
made on your on hull in 2 or 3 weeks with lots of nice stops on the way?
Even out to 65W it is only 10-12 days.

Several of those yachts looked like they would have beat Super Servant's 15
knots on their own.
