This was supposed to become great (2.9k AM). But it did not. What a RNG desaster.
Quite some honor though so I cannot really complain.

My third voyage that broke the 11 hour mark (by 2 minutes only though). It's not a purrsonal best, by five minutes, but I'm very happy with this one. Crew was all immortalized.
I can't get over the fact how majestic Jhamel looks in that robe.

just finished one, 12.6 and 12.4 in prim/second....8900, 5400, 5100, 4900...9 hr 50 min, first time I been under 10 hours on a voyage in months. If he got the best rng, I got the worst lol
My usual was 12.5k primaries, 5.5k to 6k else, worked pretty well for just over 10 hours and with luck sometimes almost 11 hours. But yeah, sometimes that wouldn't be nuff, like every 8th or maybe 10th voyage it would end a little under 10 hours. But that's what tokens are there for.

Finally got a natural 10hr.
I have been at 9-1/2 hrs for months (all year, really), and this one was a nail-biter (had a “Hazard Avoided” at the 9:59 mark that would otherwise have put me under).
Keep at it. I FINALLY got a natural 10 hr voyage last weekend after months and months (maybe all of 2020) of being at 9:30-9:45.
Felt good — but haven’t been able to repeat it since.
In an effort to swap voyage traits I started a 20 second voyage with rando crew . . . and then got distracted. But hey, if I place random top crew into a crummy ship, I can nearly hit 8 hours! Shame it wasn't DIP/SCI or DIP/CMD or I probably would have hit that easily. I can't say I'm planning to test that theory. At least, not intentionally.

I just got this today. It is my third to hit 11 hours and my best yet, though I've had better rewards from far shorter voyages.
I passed checks on command even after 11 hours, but was failing them by the end.
I am curious what crew you used for command and security. Need to beef up mine.
I saw the same skills when the voyage got back.and sent out another, but I didn't remember who was on the first. This one has many of the same crew, but science is higher and engineering is lower, so that will affect the results.
Edit: this second voyage only made it to 10:46. RNG played a role, of course, but a bigger issue was the low engineering. I find that voyages tank much faster if I can't get them to 4K each on all the other categories.
10:17 my best. find it best to get gold/ silver above 11.5k and rest of skills around 5k mark. starting AM needs to be above 2650 to really guarantee 10hrs. good luck
11h 36m a little more than a week ago. 10h dilemma with 900+ AM, 11h mark with ~450AM. Then got unlucky real quick and started failing proficiency rolls too.
Didn't know where else to put this. While it certainly isn't a record in terms of length, it is a record in terms of perfectly hitting 10hrs:
The real kicker of all this is that the voyage got stuck there too. So I didn't get the hour 10 dilemma, which is really annoying. Debating if it's worth my time/energy to bother CS over this.

Forgot to recall but that is as far as it went without a token. I then continued it.

Longest so far. I’ve had better stats to start, but ... thanks to RNGesus for this one.

15 minutes short of 10 hours.
an hour short of other's best ... but mine

wow. awesome
Had I noticed it was so close, I would have waited 13 more seconds to take a screenshot showing the voyage active past the 11-hour mark... d'oh!
My starting AM was 2,850.
