When the Vestige and Quen are rescued from the Fulstrom Homestead by Walks-Softly they take a skif to Abah's Landing in Hew's Bane. Following the coast along the Sea of Ghosts and down the Abecean Sea.
How long do you think this trip took? I was thinking about a week but ... what do you think?

During the afternoon of Loredas, 6 Sun’s Dawn 2e578 a big piece of Aetherius fell to Nirn. It was the first major piece of Aetherius to fall on Nirn in more than five hundred years. It scattered around the world as millions of shards. It was rapidly documented by Lady Cinnabar of Taneth in her pamphlet Aetherial Fragments that "... when three shards meet, they re-form into a silvery prism by unknown process and confer the power unlocked by the merger to a nearby being." The Order of the Black Worm, commonly known as the Worm Cult, reappeared in Tamriel shortly thereafter and some of its members are avidly searching said shards.
In the last week of First Seed 2e579, an arcane explosion occurred in the Imperial City — a night of storms, and trembling terrain. They named it the "Soulburst". That day Emperor Varen Aquilarios disappeared without a trace. His wife, Clivia Tharn, ascended to the Ruby Throne as Empress Regent under the guidance of the Necromancer Mannimarco. Ushering a time of increased instability within the Empire of Cyrodiil which finally grew into “The Three Banners War”.

✭✭✭✭✭A large skiff with sails? Or a small one more like a rowboat (I don't do the TG stuff so haven't ever seen the ship). If a large one with fair amount of sail, a week or a bit more might be a good estimate. In a "rowboatish" type, with maybe one not all that large sail, it might take a couple of weeks or more - and that for either size ship/boat would depend on the wind strength and direction. Though that might be pretty picky for just RPing getting back to Abah's Watch....______________________________________________________

Heren✭✭✭Without some idea about the size of the continent, it's everyone guess.
In order to give some elements of comparison, I recommand using this 'tool' : https://orbis.stanford.edu/
Using it, for example, a sea travel from London to Rome following the coast is estimated at 46 days, covering 6245 kilometers.
I also highly recommand reading the details about the building of the tools, wich can give you some ideas about how a travel is calculated, and what a travel looks like in ancient Rome - and help you estimate how much time travelling in or around Tamriel could take.
But once again, without distances - impossible to say for sure. I don't know either if there is any informations in game ( eso or other elder scrolls games ) about travels durations, that would certainly be useful.0 -
Ashnarug✭✭✭I will update my thinking to about 34 days. Poor Quen, she was sea sick all the time.
