The Delta 70 foot trawler Zopilote circumnavigated on its own bottom including the Pacific crossings.

Can a motor yacht across the atlantic. My fuel consumption has been 13 gallons per hour. Anything smaller than 35 feet will likely extend your travel time to somewhere around 4 weeks and perhaps a couple of days beyondFurther the waves in the open sea will be remarkably longer between its trough and crest than what you would normally experience closer to shore. Basically for this boat it costs me one dollar a nautical mile.
