This all depends on how fast the sailboat can travel. Speed is measured in knots. 1 knot of speed is equal to 1 nautical mile per hour. The distance from San Francisco, CA to Hawaii is approximately 2400 miles. Let's say your sailboat averages 5 knots. Divide 2400 miles by 5 miles per hour, and you get 480 hours from San Francisco, CA to Hawaii. Then divide 480 by 24 hours per day, and you get 20 days. Therefore, if your sailboat traveled at 5 knots nonstop from San Francsico, CA to Hawaii, it would take you 20 days to sail there.
Couple days
I have a 60 foot boat, i wold love to help you sail it from those places but it will cosst me £40,ooo of petrol for the boat, very sorry there
You can sail anywhere on any size boat, although for one for a long voyage probably one that you will be comfortable on for a long time.
By kayak, it would take about 35 days to travel from California to Japan. It takes 80 days by sail boat.

The time it would take to sail a boat from Japan to Hawaii depends completely on the average speed of the boat. If the boat makes an average speed of 3 miles per hour, it would take about 1,300 hours or 53 days.
Via the Panama Canal would shave some time off of the normal route, around the Horn.
It took us 17 days going at a lesiurely rate on a 42' sailboat, sailing 90% of the time. ..about a month..(avoiding the obvious'depends on how fast its going:))..that is about the average. I believe the record for the LA-Honolulu Transpac race is just under 7 days.
