That's about right but you might get beaten up a bit if you go
offshore without stabilizers. We have made two runs north from the
Port St Lucie area to Long Island Sound in 10 days with only a few all
night runs. We could make that trip in about 5 days running
continuously.
Different horses for different courses. I'd be happy to challenge
Harry's Parker to a race to Bermuda. :-)
