The same speed that 17th century replica vessels sail today of course!
A square rigged merchant vessel, fully loaded with a mass of barnacles growing on the bottom in 15 knots of wind might make 5 knots on a broad reach (fastest point of sail for them). A lug-rigged vessel some 50 feet long, lightly loaded, and sailing on a reach or beam reach might make 9 knots. If you are speaking of the archetypical Spanish galleon, you could say they made an average of 5 knots speed on their best trade routes, and (the larger ones) could sail at speeds upwards of 10 knots in the best circumstances. The answer is not as simple as the question, by any means.
About six miles per hour or 6.15 knots.
The sailboats i Mesopotamia went at about 150 miles per hour. They were very fast...
Sailboats typically travel at speeds ranging from 5 to 10 knots, which is equivalent to 5.75 to 11.5 miles per hour. The exact speed can vary depending on factors such as the size of the boat, wind conditions, and the skill of the sailor.
The Hobie Cats are fast, there's a class of boat called "Flying" that I would like to try...
Sailboats can typically reach speeds of 6 to 8 knots (7 to 9 miles per hour) when sailing in optimal conditions with a good wind.

Yes, they travel some fast!
Sailboats can vary in speed depending on the size and design, but generally they are slower than motorized watercraft such as speedboats or jet skis. Sailboats rely on wind power to move, which can be slower and less consistent than engines.
quite fast
Depends how fast you throw it
bobcats travel fast,but they only go up to 57 m.p.h.
A fast way for penguins to travel on land is sliding on their bellies. This allows them to travel faster and farther.
