    If memory serves, a Cable is 100 Fathoms and a League is 10 Cables or 1000 Fathoms.= 1 nautical mile

    Different countries have had different definitions of a league, and a land league is often shorter than a sea league, but it always has been considered to be several miles.

    In the UK and the US, a sea league has generally been equated with three nautical miles.
