Four Short of a Year
The description of the island said that the island has forty eight seasons, going through one season a week. Doesn't that mean that there are 48 weeks in the OP year? There are 52 weeks in a year in the real world. This might not be the best place to mention it, but there seems to be a difference in the length of the yearly cycles of the OP world and the real world.

Good question. The One Piece world is likely generally based on the 4 main seasons and the time needed for them to follow on should represent a year. Your remark may have some important meaning for the One Piece world : it depends on what are truly these 48 seasons. If they're all differents, it means that the island needs 48 weeks to go through all its different kind of seasons because each one last a week, and that's all. Yet, if the 48 seasons are actually 4 same seasons repeating themselves during 48 weeks, it means that people count that there are 48 seasons which follow on during a year, which implies that one year in One Piece is the equivalent of 48 weeks. At the moment, with our lack of information, we cannot answer this question. LordRayleigh.
