what kind of boat can make it across the North Atlantic Ocean safely from Florida to somewhere ~over there~ lets say 4100 miles example i used some site to get that number. i don't know anything about Boats but im guessing a Sailboat you would not make it alive as an inexperienced-

Disclaimer, I am not at ALL an expert. I just bought my first sailboat a few months ago, haven't even taken it out yet due to paperwork.

But, when I was looking at sailboats I asked my knowledgeable friend that exact same question, and his response was "Any boat could do it if the weather was perfect." Point being the importance of seasonal timing if one were to attempt something like that.

Here's a dude on youtube who did California -> Hawaii in a 23-foot cruiser
