When I was looking at stuff for speed I found countless references to  
a ship's maximum theoretical speed based on length, and subsequently  
found more detailed formulas that allowed me to derive a formula with  
displacement built in.

Now granted, this formula is for modern boats, so I what I have may be  
too fast...what I may have to do is re-calibrate on the "bireme  
standard", then use the calculations for the speeds.
I'll play around a bit more with my Shipwright sheet, ass some usage  
comments and send it out later on.
