After much research, a 36 feet long boat seemed like to perfect size for a trans-atlantic crossing. So, I did it: France->San Francisco, 1 year, 10000 Miles.

It all depends on how much comfort you want. I'd want at least a 22 foot sailboat for that. 60 + for transatlantic. I’ve gone on trips over a week in a 15 foot kayak.
