How many hours
Hello
I have at 35 foot C&C landfall and am looking to sail to Savannah Georgia from Charleston SC not inland. I used to sail years ago but on the west coast. A lot of people talk about inland waterways. But I prefer open sailing. Does anyone have an approximate hours?
Thanks

Plot your approximate course (allowing for forcast wind and current speed/direction if you're sailing), calculate it's length in nautical miles and divide by 5 for approximate hours. Then add 25% just because it always takes longer than you think it will.

About 20 hours unless the wind is against you.
