3 men, knock off 1mph for each person missing.

Galleys would normally have sails a well as the banks of oars and so could travel for 24 hours on the sea but only at a slower speed than a sailing ship. For a couple of hours they would be capable of doing about 12mph

§ 6 man rowing boat, -1mph for each pair missing

For river travel remember to add the speed of the river (in mph) depending on the diretion of travel.
