It’s somewhere between 120 and 250 nautical miles depending on when they left. A speed boat can make it in about 10 hours… so for them… 15-20 hours?

Agreed. It has to be some kind of nightmare to risk your life and family/friends in a home-made boat for a completely uncertain life. As an immigrant myself, I can only think ‘good for them’!
