Yes, for most cruise ships 23 knots is their top speed. The only other ship that goes faster is the Queen Mary 2 at 28 knots, but that makes weekly transatlantic crossings.

How fast is 23 knots in mph?
23 knots = 26.5 mph1 knot = 1.15 m/hSo,23 knots = 26.47 m/h
Is the speed of 22 knots in a ship dangerous?
Depending on the type of ship/boat it can be a perfectly safe speed. most modern container ships travel around at 20 - 23 knots.
How fast Was te Titanic running When she hit the iceberg?
About 20.5 knots, which is roughly equivalent to 23mph. Her maximum speed was 23 knots, about 27mph.
How fast was the titanic traveling was it to fast?
Titanic's top speed was 23 knots, the equivalent to 26.47 mph, and she hit the berg at 22 knots. (about 25 mph). As for being too fast, Titanic was being sailed following the protocol of the times.
How many miles are in 23 knots?
1 knots = 1.15077945 miles 23 knots = 26.46792735 miles

The Titanic was traveling at 22.5 knots when it collided with the iceberg.
How fast is 10 knots in mph?

What is the maximum speed of the titanic?
The maximum speed capability of the Titanic was 23 knots. The Titanic hit was moving at 22.5 knots at the time it hit the iceberg.Titanic's top speed was 23 knots, the equivalent to 26.47 mph.She hit the berg at 22 knots. (maybe less than 25 mph)
How fast in mph is 20 knots?
23.02 miles per hour. A knot is a unit of measure for 1 nautical mile per hour. 1 knot=1.151 MPH. Reference the link below:
How fast 23 knots in miles per hour?
1 knot is defined as exactly 1.852 kilometres per hour. Therefore, 23 knots is equal to 23 x 1.852 = 42.596 kilometres per hour.Converted to miles per hour, and rounded to two decimal places, 42.596 kilometres per hour is equal to 26.47 mlies per hour.
How long by boat will it take to go 708 miles?
That would depend on the speed of the boat. A cruise ship sails at about 20 knots, which is about 23 MPH, so about 31 hours. Back in the day of ocean liners like the RMS Queen Elizabeth and SS United States, speed was king, and ocean liners could max out at about 38 knots, or about 44 MPH; call it 17 hours. For a sailing vessel, it will depend on the wind, but you'd do well to average 8 knots, about 9 MPH, so you should plan on 79 hours.
How many days would it take for a cruise ship to travel around the world?
Let's assume that the cruise ships speed is about 20 knots per hour - this translates into about 23 MPH. Figuring that the world is ~25,000 miles in circumference at the equator, it would take 1,086 hours or 45 days to make that sailing voyage. Of course, this is assuming that no ports of call are stopped at - just pure full time sailing in open water. If the ship must use the Panama Canal, one has to add sufficient time to the total to transverse that area, too.
