Four day trip from whose perspective? Luffy and his crew have never been to the New World, so they don't know crap about it.On the other hand, Pekoms and Tamago have been traversing the New World for who knows how long (I am guessing quite a while, judging by the fact they are FI correspondents and the subordinates of a Yonko) and they are likely to know it a lot better then the Straw Hats. Remember, Shanks can get around quite fast (He met Kaido then got to Marineford in a short time) so it isn't hard for powerful, experienced people to move about the Grand Line. Luffy is ignorant and unexperienced. His navigator doesn't even have the right log pose, if memory serves. until he gets some decent experience, he will not have that kind of flexibility of movement.
