Month columns refer to start of simulated voyage. Percentage values refer to probability of crossing success. Numbers inside parenthesis provide the range, in days, of crossing duration, and number inside square bracket the average crossing duration, also in days. Simulated trips that resulted in no successful crossings are not shown.
