Look up common human-created paths from Victoria to Maui for comparison #24

People have been doing the Vic-Maui Yacht race for years. They likely have documented routes that people have taken that are recommended (eg. for beginners or experts?) or the ones that allowed people to break records.

We should understand these paths so we can compare the paths global pathfinding is generating and ensure they are valid. We should double check if there are any regions we should avoid.

Kieran found this great resource. It looks like it is a pretty straight line, but some boats go off for a bit.

Looks done for now. Good for reference.
