Question? Which test vessels hull design functioned best in the handling of the test 8 meter vessel. Is plans available for the 8 meter test vessel that proved best of the 3 for handling and overall performance. If so, how/whom do I contact to acquire a copy of the plans. Including the sail size/shape/characteristics. Thank You.

beautiful boats, thanks for posting

They sail remarkably close to the wind. I wonder how they would do with leeboards.

When I build one of those beautiful boats, I shall make two: One to use and pass on to my children, One to be buried in with my treasures to take with me to Valhalla. It will be a grand time building them both!

Where can I find the plans for any of these vessels?? They are beautiful and I wish to build one. Any one with information about it can shout it out.

Hello dragon fairhair!
Since a time I am making researches which typ of vikingboat I want to build. Now I saw your boats and I felt in love with them. Do you have plans to build them or pictures from the building process?

Does anyone know of any guides or manuals on building longboat of this size? I'm looking to build a sailboat exactly like the ones here but all of the ones I find are nothing like these. Thanks

My God that is the prettiest thing I have witnessed in a long time...What a blessing. Thank you.

What is the cost of these ships. complete?
Dragon Harald Fairhair is being built in Western Norway. It will be the largest Viking ship built in modern times. We have built three 8 m long test boats which have different variations of the hull that the large Viking ship will end up with. Small variations in the shape of the hull can mean very much for how the ship will manage in the sea. For the crew this can mean the difference between life and death. The test boats are named after the three nornes: Urd, Skuld and Verdande. Dragon Harals Fairhair will sail in the wake of the Vikings. It will be a ship that has the superb seaworthiness that characterized the ocean going long ships in the Viking Age. The large ship will set out for its first voyage in 2013. We will invite people from all over the world to be crew members.
