Voyage time by boat speed
Time underway is distance divided by speed. These are continuous-passage figures with no stops or weather margin.
| Boat and speed | Time underway |
|---|---|
| Sailboat, conservative (5 kn) | 24d 9h |
| Sailboat, average (6 kn) | 20d 7h |
| Displacement trawler (8 kn) | 15d 6h |
| Fast trawler (10 kn) | 12d 4h |
| Planing motor yacht (15 kn) | 8d 3h |
| Fast motor yacht (20 kn) | 6d 2h |
Planning estimate, not navigation
This distance is computed over the open Eurostat shipping-lane network. It is a realistic passage length for planning, but your sailed distance will differ with weather routing, currents, draft, and the exact berths you leave from and arrive at. Always verify against official charts.
