By 1850, this journey was halved. For instance the clipper ship Oriental was able to sail from Hong Kong to London in 97 days that year. The absolute one day distance record made by a clipper involved 436 nautical miles. Clipper ships were fast but no specific rig type was standard. By 1845, the term was used in conjunction with a name indicating the cargo carried or area served by a fast-sailing vessel and a specific rig type was usually indicated.
It really depends on the size of the boat, as well as start/stop locations. It took Columbus three months sailing from Spain, and it was not unusual for sailing vessels like tâ¦he Mayflower to take four or five months. It may take 30 - 45 days in a contemporary sloop-rigged sailboat. There are annual yacht races from the Canary Islands to St. Lucia in the Caribbean, and an excellent time is 20 to 25 days with good winds and weather. *The record eastbound by a special high-speed sailboat is 3 days, 15.43 hours, set in 2009.
