We do not see details of spanreed usage often. I have found some relatively good descriptions @Pagerunner may also find this informative

  1.  Dalinar - Jasnah
  2. Shallan - the Davar estate
  3. Shallan - Tyn's employer
  4. Jasnah - her agents
  5. Adrotagia - multiple correspondents
  6. Amaram - Restares

From those I draw some conclusions

  • spanreeds need Stormlight
  • while activated but not writing, that is with the signal light flashing, you can run around with them. We have multiple scenes of servants carrying them
  • they board they rest on must be levelled to be used
  • the spanreed itself, however, is placed by hand
  • the spanreed is placed on the upper left position marked by a dot by convention to start a conversation
  • The ruby is at leat in some cases on the side of the reed
  • Shallan's family thinks that a spanreed cannot be used on the ocean
  • The spanreed and the board are not paired. Shallan used a random board once
  • Adrotagia once set surrounded by spanreeds on boards.

You couldn't, the Reed would either move with the boat, or stay stationary as the boat moves.
