Just to KNOT be under harassment
For a ship of that size that is screaming fast.
I remember the cruise ship we were on was moving at about 25 kn/hr - FAST
Knot to give up easily, I bet anything it is kilometers per hour, not knots (which is already nautical miles per hour) so it would never be knots per hour. The 25.7 km per hour is right in the range of normal container ships, which is why I took the challenge!
May the force be with you and your machine!
