Maine is the closest US state to Africa.
Is that really true haha

According to my sloppy google maps guesstimate, this appears to be true. Florida-West Africa seems slightly further than Maine-Northwest Africa
Florida is crazy far west, compared to where I expect. It's due south of Ohio.
I feel like this probably explains some things...
I once read a blog from a sailing group that pointed out that there is possible sea route where you could sail from Halifax, Nova Scotia in a straight line and end up in Vancouver, British Columbia.
