Drakkar Viking Historic Boat Model
This model is simple, but stunning! It is a replica of the Drakkar Viking long boat, a classic boat used by the Viking between 7th & 10th century. It looks and feels like a miniature real boat.
This 25-inch model is handcrafted with the highest quality woods from scratch by master artisans using “plank on frame” construction, just like real boats. Among the details of this boat model: lines of shields along 2 sides of boats, many wooden oars, colorful Viking sail, brass nameplate and stand.
History:
The Drakkar, or Viking Longships, were the long, narrow and very flexible vessels used by the Vikings for trade, exploration, and warfare. The Longships had symmetrical ends and a maximal speed of around 15 knots, and they were also called "Dragon Ships" because they often had a dragon-shaped bow or other magical beings carved on it. The Longships had been the symbol of
the Vikings naval power for a long time, ranging in the North and Baltic Sea and even far from their Scandinavian homelands: to Iceland, Greenland, Northern America and the Mediterranean!
