    In 1960, we went from Montreal, Canada across the Atlantic and around to the North Sea to Hamburg, Germany in 21 days, so that was the longest distance wise ... but in 1980 I went from Churchhill, Manitoba through the NorthWest Passage, around Yukon & Alaska, to Prince Rupert, B.C., a slow glacier watching, whale watching, polar bear watching, coastal cruise that took 4 weeks.

    I used to go on cruises so 2 weeks. Well obviously I got off during that time (so to speak) so if you mean without leaving the ship, I'd day about a day and a half.

    About four hours; the length of time of the trip from England to Holland on the fast-cat ferry.

    Two days, I think. I was on one of those awful Holiday Inn-type cruise tourist ships with 400 people touring the Greek Islands and Turkey, years ago. We made stops all over and it took two hours to disembark and two to embark again. A real pain.

    Weeks or months at a time on submarines while I was in the Navy!

    I believe the longest single deployment with no port call to break it up (and under water, too) I took was probably on my first boat (USS Henry Clay, SSBN-625 Gold crew), a little over 100 days. I'm thinking it was 108 days, but I could be wrong.

    Typical deployments for Fast Attack submarines, however, are about 6 months long...but they usually get port calls scattered here and there.

    I worked for a company that provided a yearly "thingy" for the employees. One year it was a weekend at Lake Arrowhead. One year it was a short "cruise" up the California coast. That was just a day trip so I guess we were on the ship about 8 or 10 hours. Went to Catalina once and don't remember how long it took...maybe a couple of hours. Was on a sailboat once for a few hours and on a catamaran a brief time but it seemed like forever! :)

    Many years ago camping and staying in a sailboat near Port Isabel, TX for about a week.

    Served in the US Navy and was aboard ship for two years plus. Of course a ship is not a boat.

    3-4 days sailing around with my parents on their boat. One year later, they took off for a 3 year adventure from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Boy, was I envious.
