• The question may be incomplete as there is no minimum no of people or maximum no of people on the boat at a time . So i might assume there can be all of them travelling at the same time and crossing the river !

• Answer to this question is 16.
  
  Considering at a time only 2 person can travel, since each couple doesn't want their partner to travel with other, Husbands alone have 6 possibilities. Wives alone have 6 possibilities. Each couple has 1 possibilities.
  So, 6 + 6 + 4 = 16.
