On Thursday, July 1st, 2021, from approximately 10:15am to 10:50am local time, I received several stations (two confirmed, four unconfirmed) from the Azores islands off the coast of Portugal.

Station: RTP Antena 3, Pico da Barrosa (Sao Miguel, Azores). 30kw power at 2,378 miles (3,827 km) distance
My Location: Mashpee, Massachusetts, United States

This was the most clear of the receptions, and the first known Trans-Atlantic E-Skip to be observed from the United States to the European continent across the Atlantic Ocean. This was received via the "Sporadic E-Skip" propagation phenomena. At a distance of 2,378 miles, or 3,827 - this was likely double or triple "hops" of E-Skip.
