In 1898, the Komonder Sved Foyu made the passage from New York to London in 20 days.
------------------------
1898 was at the end of the 19th century (not the 18th as asked in the question), a time when trans-Atlantic ships were frequently steamships or combination of steam and sail. The first steamship crossing of the Atlantic was in 1819 and took just under a month. (SS Savanah). Steam or steam/sail were significantly faster and more reliable than the sailing ships of the 18th century had been. Trans-atlantic crossings in the late 1890s in a steamer usually took 7 to 10 days in the more recent passenger ships.
In the 18th century (1700-1799) all trans-Atlantic crossings were by sail only. I have read that 2 to 4 months was average - varying by season and by direction (sailing east was faster than sailing west).
-----------------------
Svend Foyu was a Norwegian shipping magnate who made his fortune in whaling - specifically due to his use of harpoon cannons with exploding harpoons.
I am unable to discover whether the "Komonder Sved Foyu" mentioned in the original response to this question was connected with Svend Foyu nor whether it was a sailing boat, sail/steamer, or steamer only.
