>north of 60 knots

60 knots would be nearly 70 miles per hour. Did you mean 60 kilometers per hour?

Nimitz-class carriers can do 30 knots (which is fast) and Gerald R. Ford-class carriers are even faster. But no aircraft carrier goes 60 knots. (Perhaps you were on a carrier-based aircraft? Those go even faster.)
