How quickly can mean the turtle swimming underwater?

I know there are seven types of sea turtles, but I just want know the average speed of a turtle (in general)? Also, what is the highest speed recorded for a sea turtle swim? Thank you!

They can swim 1.9 to 2.8 meters per second, according to a reliable source (http://jeb.biologists.org/cgi/content/full/205/23/3689.) A else reports of speeds up to 20 miles per hour (9 meters per second.) – http://hypertextbook.com / facts/1999/RachelShweky.shtml
