You gotta remember that a lot of “institutional knowledge” was lost when the old vikings died and they have to start from scratch to build an authentic Viking ship with re created tools and materials and not a balsa wood Hollywood vessel.
I hope to see it sail one day.

The method of construction and the materials are well understood from archeological evidence. Several reproductions have been made using this knowledge and with reproduction tools. It should be a fine ship.
