| Post Leagues (Lieues de Poste) (lieue) | Fathoms (ftm) |
|---|---|
| 1 lieue | 2,131.45 ftm |
| 2 lieue | 4,262.9 ftm |
| 5 lieue | 10,657.3 ftm |
| 10 lieue | 21,314.5 ftm |
| 20 lieue | 42,629 ftm |
| 50 lieue | 106,573 ftm |
| 100 lieue | 213,145 ftm |
| 500 lieue | 1,065,730 ftm |
| 1,000 lieue | 2,131,450 ftm |
25 lieue × 2,131.45 = 53,286.3 ftm
Try this example →250 lieue × 2,131.45 = 532,863 ftm
