Just a clarification: Bermuda is not really close to any major coastline, and certainly not the Canadian one.

850 miles (closest point is in North Carolina) isn't necessarily far.

When someone says "off the coast", I would not expect 850 miles of distance. And, even more, when they say "off the east coast", I would not expect it to be almost directly south of the east coast. Those were the points I was attempting to relay.
