@elonjet Slightly longer than a round trip from South Florida to DC.

Driving instead of flying private in a 30mpg car reduces the fuel used from 1849 gallons (1.15 mpg) to 71.5 gallons, CO2 to 0.7 tons (1,400 pounds) at a fuel cost of under $200. Takes about four days.

A sailboat would be best of all, especially one that could be anchored in the river near DC and provide housing as well as transportation. Twin hulled sailing cats can outrun Class 3 E-bikes in the right wind.

Speaking of E-bikes, some sailers are using big E-bike hub motors at higher voltage (usually 72) and with ferrofluid cooled stators to produce about 8kw at the prop or about 10 1/2 HP, and under sail using the prop to turn the motor as a generator to recharge the batteries. That lets them get in and out of port or out of being becalmed without having a gas motor on board. Fuel cost: zero. CO2 output: zero. Range: limited only by time.

I'm sure Elon Musk can afford a very nice catmaran
