In the nautic world you have the "all motor" guys and the "all sails" guys
Sails require more skills, but you aren't going to cross an ocean with motor only... Unless you're "driving" a super tanker
Ponder that, you aren't a state who can provide fuel to infinity
On the flip side when you face unexpected bad weather and are still not that far off the coast and you still have time to go back home... You want a good motor
Yea, I wouldn't be going that far out to sea. Just over the horizon. Too risky, from my perspective, to be any farther from land in a bug out situation.
