The longboat is a small boat often carried aboard a larger vessel to serve as a lifeboat, and also used for routine utility work such as transferring passengers ashore. At least four oarsmen are required to propel the longboat at half walking speed, eight or more at walking speed. Twenty seats are provided, and up to a half a ton of cargo can be carried, depending on the load of passengers.
