Hi Abby, how are ya? 14 knots isn't to shabby for a clipper though many topped that. The Flying Cloud logged 18 knots & the Soverign Of The Seas made 22, Old Ironsides hit 14 knots at least once that was reported by one of it's Captains. From Hawaii to San Diego on a 47' cutter we made between 7 & 8 & thought that was pretty fine sailing of course we were also becalmed horse lats for 12 straight days, kind of yanked the bone clear out of our mouths. Hope to see you again sometime soon & good luck to you, Barry
