ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

74 knot

A knot is a way to measure how fast something is moving, like a car or a boat. 74 knots means that something is traveling at a speed of 74 nautical miles per hour. Nautical miles are used for measuring distances over water, much like regular miles are used for measuring distances on land. So, if a boat is going 74 knots, it's going pretty fast! It's like if you were riding a bike down a really steep hill as fast as you possibly could. It would feel really fast, but boats can go even faster!
