An ion drive provides extremely low acceleration, but it can be sustained for a very long period of time. There are a couple of different types of ion thrust engines producing thrusts from under 100 mN up to a few thousand mN. Compare this to the Space Shuttle which, combining the main engines and the solid rocket boosters (SRBs), produces 30 MN.

Which will be treated as berthing time for a ship on jetty Is it all fast time or is it a gangway down time?

The berthing time for a ship on a jetty is typically when all fast lines are secured to the bollards and the ship is effectively moored. Additionally, the gangway down time is when the gangway is safely connected to the jetty, allowing access for crew and personnel to embark and disembark from the ship. Both times are important in ensuring the safety and security of the vessel while docked.

How long did medieval water travel take?

The water travel speed depended on the type of boat, and favorable conditions. Sail boats where much like today where the top speed is 1.34 times the length of the waterline for a single hull. From there you can figure out the distance, and research the desired ship. Labor powered ships could go just as fast, however it depends completely on the circumstances.
