No,it's a R E A L L Y long ways.

Cape Town - Miami - Panama - Los Angeles is 11,000 NM as the crow flies.

A month and a half is making good speed. They will make a at least a couple of stops too. Besides,going thru the Panama Canal isn't exactly fast either.

Big ships have priority in the canal. It took my buddy less than a day I think to get his sailboat through there. He said it was pretty interesting as they pack the locks full. A smaller boat could end up being crammed up against a much larger vessel. It was pretty cool. You could email the lock master as he was in there and get him to aim the camera on a specific boat. I was able to talk to him on his cell and watch the picture of him waving as we talked. WAY COOL! I have some of the pix taken from that camera. Definitely a life experiance for me.
