The speed of a steamboat varied depending on the size of the boat and whether or not it was moving with the current. Most boats went about 6 to 10 miles per hour on the water.
15 to 20 mph
The steamboats were invented to traveling on water much faster and much more efficientally. Before the steamboats, the people had to use clipper ships which were very fast but it depended on wind so it was hard to control the direction. The invention of the steamboats also went upstream so the boat traveled both upstream and downstream.
Steamboats made it possible for people to go up river, against the current. Thus, steamboats opened up new areas for settlement. If you want more information about steamboats, go to steamboats.com. The site has a good student classroom and research section.

Steamboats cost a lot of money to maintain
The first steamboats, developed in the early 19th century, typically traveled at speeds of about 3 to 5 miles per hour (4.8 to 8 kilometers per hour). The most famous early steamboat, the Clermont, launched by Robert Fulton in 1807, achieved speeds of around 5 miles per hour. Over time, advancements in technology allowed steamboats to reach higher speeds, but the initial designs were relatively slow compared to modern vessels.
