From where to where? To sail the biennial Transpac Yacht Race from Los Angeles to Honolulu, winning boats commonly make the 2500+ mile journey in around 7 days. On the other hand, depending on winds and route taken, the return trip can take anywhere from 3 weeks on up. Fair winds and following seas to you.

It really depends on the size of the boat, as well as start/stop locations. It took Columbus three months sailing from Spain, and it was not unusual for sailing vessels like the Mayflower to take four or five months. It may take 30 - 45 days in a contemporary sloop-rigged sailboat.

There are annual yacht races from the Canary Islands to St. Lucia in the Caribbean, and an excellent time is 20 to 25 days with good winds and weather.

*The record eastbound by a special high-speed sailboat is 3 days, 15.43 hours, set in 2009.

Around 21 days.

Southampton to Boston is around 3000 nautical miles. If you average 6.5 knots you can do the journey in three weeks.
