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. :-)

I can fly to Bermuda in about an hour and a half, if memory serves. I
can't think of a single reason why I'd want to get there in a slow,
floating RV like your boat that wallows its way there. Bermuda is about
650 miles off the North Carolina coast. What's that for you in the open
ocean, three to four days? In three to four days, I could have been on
the beach, gone fishing and snorkeling, eaten in any number of good
restaurants, and visited all the bars and clubs that James Bond never
really hit.

I find small boat travel tedious and boring. Sorry.
