Lord of the Hidden Layer
I've read Lewis and Clark's Journals. 2 keelboats plus 6 or so canoes moved 50 expedition members plus some local guides (Sacajawea and family) plus a few tons of supplies. Neither Lewis nor Clark were very specific about further details (drat).
Variant keelboat: canalboat. No sails, pulled by one donkey (cheap freight slowboat) up to three horses (fast and fancy passenger craft). Use the Erie Canal locks as a standard size - I really should go look that up - the boats are built to fill the space. Gives you something for any river or lake (using 10-foot poles to push along in shallow water).
