So far, the boat builders have put up a template of the ship’s keel and bow on the shipyard site to get an idea of ​​how big the ship will actually be and to signal that they will soon start building another reconstruction of Skuldelev 5 out in the yard.

Another? Was there a prior reconstruction? That would be interesting to see without the 5 year wait.

Will we celebrate all the white slaves the Vikings captured and sold to North Africa? LOL

Why do the little grey cells seem to remember that this has already been done?

Take a trip to America and see a ship that replicates one that landed in Old New Castle, Delaware.

between four and five years?

with all the modern technology in the world, and it’ll take them 3-4 times longer to make than the original... WTF???

[Empire_of_Liberty]

Oh, sure. It’s a “replica”. I’ll bet that they’re counting on getting it done in time to use it. “Our only goal will be the Western shore!”

Not much of a “ship”. Those Vikings were cray-cray.

There is also a replica of a Viking ship in Moorhead, Minnesota that sailed from NYC to Norway via the Great Lakes and the Eire Canal.

Will it HAVE GPS and Sonar? Truthfully, will it sail across the ocean to Vinland? Also, will the captain of the ship going to be Kirk Cousins? 🤓

Three were several built as props for the movies THE VIKINGS and THE LONG SHIPS.
