Unless it is an especially fast boat, the average sailboat sails 5 knots if they're lucky. That's 5 nautical miles per hour. Multiply that by the number of hours sailing per day (are they sailing at night?) and you get the range. Since the wind is a factor, you will soon learn it is impossible to predict the distance any given day or week. Sailboats are for people who enjoy sailing, powerboats are for people who need to get from point A to point B.
