"Draken Harald Hårfagre is actually not a replica, rather a real-life Viking ship built based ancient Norwegian boat building techniques dug up from the history books and archaeological findings."

How do they define "replica" here? Sure sounds like a replica to me. A very good and accurate replica but a replica all the same. In my book the only way it's a "real viking ship" is a) there are still real vikings around who built and finished it a couple years ago or b) someone discovered an authentic 1000 year old viking ship that was still seaworthy.

That is beautiful-and certainly a testament to how well the old shipbuilding techniques worked...

The world’s largest viking ship has arrived in North America after crossing the North Atlantic Ocean on a journey from its homeport in Haugesund, Norway.

Better check that ship for filthy Islamic Muslims who might have jumped on that ship in Norway to come here to get on our dole.

. . . actually not a replica, rather a real-life Viking ship built based ancient Norwegian boat building techniques dug up from the history books and archaeological findings.

I fail to see what distinguishes it from this Viking ship which made the trip from New York to Norway in 1982, some 34 years ago.

I followed the you tube videos of the costruction and voyage.
The videos were annoying due to being too short.

Still cool though.

Anyhow of finding its itinerary of stops. Would be cool to watch it go through the Soo Locks in Sault Sainte marie on its way too of back from Duluth.

Not “real”.

Just “replica”.

In other words, a replica.

They need eyes painted on the bow so they can see in foggy weather.
