This guy is a master everything. I cut wood for him and his fellow shiprights in the 90's. They would bring me a 4K cant and we would try and get more out of it. I was always super nervous. Kept my blades sharp and mill adjustments correct
When I was 12 my Dad told me we were descended from Vikings. He then went into the basement and pulled a tarp off of a bunch of old oak boards that had been there since I could remember. He pulled them out one at a time and set them out in the back yard. Then he spent the next three days lecturing me about the importance of the keel and getting it correct. Then we made the ribs and then the other parts and put them all together. It took all summer. When we were done we had a boat. It was 24 feet long and seven feet wide, a sail, six pairs of oars, a mast and everyone in the neighborhood said it wouldn't float. He dragged it onto a trailer and we drove 90 minutes to a beach and to my utter amazement it slid right down the sandy beach into the water with just him and I towing by rope and it went into the water and he and my uncles and cousins took the oars which combined with the sail and the weekend before Labor Day we were rowing/sailing around Massachusetts Bay. We got up to about 20 knots. It was amazingly stable. We tooled around the bay for about 6 hours then took it back in. Not so much as a drop of water leaked into the boat. Not bad for using no nails, screws, rivets or any other fasteners. We used tar to seal the wood and he made the paint himself in the basement. Nothing but that paint has ever been used on that boat and it has never grown barnacles. My Dad and I made that boat so everything fit together tightly. My favorite parts were the two dragon heads at the bow and stern. The only part we didn't make was the sail. My grandmother made that. A few years ago we got caught in a storm, we encountered ten foot seas and we thought that was it, we were done for. But all we had to do was row into the waves and the boat took care of us. That ordeal lasted 45 minutes.
This is more a modern interpretation of a viking ship. If the planks where split they would not need to steam them as they would be very flexable, one of the reasons why these ships where so out standing. They definately did not use cedar, or galvanised nails. This is some attempt "to make it better than the original" if in doubt check the site of the viking museum of Ribe. They have reconstructed more than seven viking ships.
Excelente,que bom que ainda existam mestres carpinteiros como voces,façam com que essa arte permaneça viva, treinando novos aprendizes. Estão todos de parabéns. Excellent, good master carpenters who still exist as anybody, that make this art remain alive, training new apprentices. They are all to be congratulated.
Impressive! Good luck to you! I visited B.C. and W.A. last summer and really liked it as I knew I would. I kind of think of it as the Scandinavia of North America.
I don't know so much about boatbuilding, but from my knowledge, vikings didn't use nails to stick the boards together to oneanother. They only fasten the boards in each end. In that way the boards were able to move relative to each other, making the boat much more flexible and stronger.
+Edward Kiel As I said, I don't know so much about boatbuilding, so maybe I understood/remember the lecture I've heard some years ago incorrectly. It wasfrom a specialist that had participating in building a boat the same way. What I do remember for sure was that they used some part of a whale, when constructing the hull, and that the hull was very flexible. If your interesseted to know more, I guess the people behind Gudvangen Vikingmarket (where I heard the lecture) knows the name of this expert and how to get in contact with him.
certain important details should be made the original way. Notice how traditional scandinavian boatbuilders make these longboats. They are true craftsmen keeping the tradion alive..
Thank you for sharing Would love to been able to be a part of what you're doing and would love to a been in the past to be doing what you're doing they were crash ments they were also relentless in what they did as you did say they were very intelligent a segment of the world's history that is amazing thank you and God-bless
Lovely work. Regardless of the childish rejoinders as to whether it's traditional or historically it's an excellent example of skill, craftsmanship, and perseverance. It's a shame more of those that comment fail to post their renditions of a Viking inspired longboat.
The beauty about such boats is that it brings people together is such a great spirit. If people want to stay physically and mentally healthy, they should follow a real hardware project with a real aim. That alone can occupy a lot of people and who needs theatres, pubs, art, music, churches when all those are contained in the spirit of making a real boat. Yes indeed a boat does have a soul, especially a wooden boat which in a way it is a live object. Of course fibreglass is easily maintained, but wood has a warmth about it that people need so much. Perhaps city people miss a lot and living in a penthouse on the top of a skyscraper well, I do not want to argue that one out. Any man can be so rich in spirit and making a wooden boat is a way to get there.
hi - i am very much feeling your comment. i had built skateparks for two decades. hard, but most of the time simple work. i have viking ancestors, too. i shall go back to building stuff with my hands :D regards, tom.
Where did the boards come from? Did you split the whole trees with wooden wedges to make every board like so many videos say the old norse did? They made thousands of boards for their fleets. I realize they had slaves but still the immense amount if time it takes to make a single board that way is ridiculous. I think that is a mystery unsolved
Hanasshole solo It was taken from us in Romania a couple of hundred years ago, when they thought that dead gingers would come back as dogs, fleas or bedbugs and drink the blood of young woman (no shit!).
sorry. but working the planks into trhicknes and shape should be done with broad axes and the nails should be forged from pure iron - not galvanized. But I wish you a safe journey
+Peter Bue Westh The nails are galvanised for more rust resistance, if they weren't galvanized they wouldn't probably last a season on the water, Also planing the timbers reduces cost/time spent building the boat.
+asambi69 I know, it is one of the mysteries and wonders about Scandinavian iron age forging. Tradition has it that they used very pure iron for these nails.
How can these planks be strong enough when they use sawed planks,? The historical accurate ships have planks made with axes to make them stronger and tougher... maybe these planks are thicker? Also making the ship a little more heavy...
a 40 ft longboat can be bought from Denmark for E400,000. 30 ft version is priced by that museum shipyard at E125,000. I'd like to know what these builders in NW USA are charging..
If anyone here has any information they can share on how to build a Norwegian pram , I'd very much appreciate it. I'd be willing to purchase said plans
a full size long boat would take 4 years to make if you only use handcraft tools and materials they had from back then. if you cheat and use modern tools and lifting tools it would take around 1 year. i know this cause in denmark they have a historic viking museum and boat yard where they make 1:1 scale longships with limited hand crafted tools and methods from back then.
I can't use the sound while I'm on the air otherwise it would be broadcast to my listeners, who probably wouldn't mind in this town, but my boss would freak. I can't tell...are you using glue to augment your iron-clinkering?
Two points. 1. I've never heard anyone ask if a ship has a soul, and doubt it would be the 'most frequently asked question'. 2. I don't think people know vikings for their trade, given that the word viking means raider. They might know Danes for their trade, or Jutes, or Saxons, or Rus but not vikings.
Viking dorsn't mean raider, it means someone from a "vik" - the Norwegian word for a small bay. Since much of the Norwegian coast is rugged and harsh, most people would live in these bays. There they would be somewhat protected from the storms, and still be close to the fishing grounds.
David Hefner; we have 7 here within an radius if 30kms . 2 from the viking age, on display in the museum and 5 rebuilt copies - to be seen in action on the water every summer. Greetings from a small Danish island 😜
if you went to Oslo Musem you will see that your bow is really off and the planks taper upward and narrow and they are flushed by cutting out notches with the bow stiffener and keel - its sad you did not get naval architecture drawings on the project before you started it - they are free on the internet and all sorts of pictures are available if you can't travel to look at one --- you spend more time on replicating their tools but not their boat ---- i did the research before I built them down to the wolves head on the bow --
Hi Phil, There is a few gaps in your research. I hope you don’t mind my corrections. First off the Oseberg ship in the Oslo museum is not a defining example of all long ships, but rather one of a spectrum of many ships that cross a wide array of building techniques over thousands of years. In short viking ship building techniques varied a lot, especially over time and region. Not all long ships were built the same or had the same hull form. That includes how the planks were fastened to the stem. Some boats (such as the Oseberg boat) had rabbeted rabbeted stems, in Jay's boat the stem has been hollowed out in order for the front of the plank to be riveted rather than nailed to the stem (as seen on Skuldelev 5). This makes just as strong of a stem that is less likely to stave out in heavy seas. To this day the Åfjordsbåts (the last true descendants of the long boat) don’t rabbit there stems to accept planks. Second, the builder is always the designer in Scandinavian boats. Clinker boat builders never have or used plans from a naval architect. Rather they built their boats completely by eye and on the shop floor. Even on the Dragon Harald Fairhair where plans were made they were not used by the boat builders on the floor. Instead they used the best tool they have, their eye. I would recommend looking at the Wikipedia page for the Viking Ship Museum in Roskilde, there you can see pictures of viking ships that have different hull and construction forms than the Oseberg ship. I hope you don’t take offense at my correction. I just wanted to defend the truth in something I’m very passionate about. Har de bra! H
Yep Boats have a Spirit. It center is usually up at the Bow right in line with the deck or a little above the deck. On a calm day pull the bow in to the dock. get it close were you can place your hand on the bow area as if you are petting a horse and see if you do not agree.
Here they came for trading and 'stuff', and then one day they all jumped in the river like lemmings and drowned. Go figure, foreigners often can't hold the local beer.
How many more times do we have to hear about Norway taking all the credit for the Danes. The danish and Swedish and ya some Norwegians but even the history channel gets it wrong so whatever lol. Ragnar Lothbrook and Bjorn Ironsides were Swedish! There tombs are even there and known as the first some day rulers or “kings” of Sweden. 🇸🇪 🇩🇰 The real “Vikings” even though they never referred to themselves as Vikings and nor did the English. They were Danes or Northman not Vikings but they did go on “Vikings”. Sorry had to vent lol Norway gets all the credit lol that’s like saying South America were the real Roman Empire. Lol I’m Swedish also lol could be another reason. By the way the blonde lady at the end is gorgeous! I literally just moved to skagit county like few months go from Sweden 🇸🇪. So weird. So weird. It’s nice place tho but a lot of crime..
A replica boat , not really done the viking way thus not a real viking boat but a replica viking boat . I guess next step would be fit it with a engine ( swedes would ).
Can some one tell me how to down load this video for my future reference? I'm considering building a mini viking ship/canoe out of plastic and try to make it look like wood. But that way it would be light enough for me to take to the lake on top my car.
in the faroe islands they still make a boat thats is the closest cousin to the viking long ship, the types are, tríbekkur, tristur. fýra mannafarð, fimm mannafarð, seks mannafarð, átta mannafarð, tíggju mannafarð, seksæringur, teinæringur
its a shame to call this boat a Viking-ship. It will break in half on the ocean. The Vikings used the root from Pinus sylvestris for framing and they did not cut it like you did, but they found roots that had grown into the right shape by nature. It is much more flexible and durable than a log cut into shape. The poor way you fasten the boards to the bow-stem is also not like any Viking-ship.
search tríbekkur og google and go to pictures and you should clik on the first picture but its very hard to build a faroese boat try to contact a faroese boat builder or go on the web site "torg.fo" and search "bátasmíð"

thanks for sharing.
How much does it cost you to build a boat like that?
Great build but the Vikings actually planked the ship then added the ribs in
TheEmeraldfox777 ; correct - and they were not fixed to the planks/boards - which made the boat flexible
Impressive! Good luck to you!

👍👌👏
Traditional viking power planer and galvanizing process for those fasteners.
So it's more authentic if the fasteners rust more quickly?
هذا عمل جميل جدا في صناعة السفن الخشبية من زمان البيكنج
Cool.
I like such boats very much. Do you ever sailing along the Norwegian coast? It is enormous fascinating.
At 56 feet ( 17 metres! ) How does this compare with the longboats used by the Vikings?
Thanks to all

Hah, love that man in the lusekofte, he even looks like a traditonaly old Norwegian man.
wish I could sail on one of those
Anacortes, Washington, USA. An island in the Puget Sound, northwest of Seattle.
yes a boat has a soul and any one who tells you she dose not is full of it
Nice boat, but highly simplified.
I want to build one to be buried in.
funny, only 6 likes for such great craftmanship...
The viking ships were/are a beautiful looking vessel but the one negative, so i've been told, is the sail is an unwieldy thing to control
They're good at rowing, hence the term viking

if a community works on a boat and the dna can be traced back i think its got history soul is the hart of a wood boat
Galvanized nails sounds very authentic LOL
Resources are too scarce to waste on a boat that will fall apart from iron sickness in 10 years
I real life board bender! LMAO!
Its the ferrari of the iron age.
Made for Disneyland?
"one frequent question is, 'does a boat have a soul?'"

Came here for the ship building, stayed for all the people that got a C in high school wood shop talking shit.
if you went to Oslo Musem you will see that your bow is really off and the planks taper upward and narrow and they are flushed by cutting out notches with the bow stiffener and keel - its sad you did not get naval architecture drawings on the project before you started it - they are free on the internet and all sorts of pictures are available if you can't travel to look at one --- you spend more time on replicating their tools but not their boat ---- i did the research before I built them down to the wolves head on the bow --
Hi Phil,
There is a few gaps in your research. I hope you don’t mind my corrections.
First off the Oseberg ship in the Oslo museum is not a defining example of all long ships, but rather one of a spectrum of many ships that cross a wide array of building techniques over thousands of years. In short viking ship building techniques varied a lot, especially over time and region. Not all long ships were built the same or had the same hull form.

Some boats (such as the Oseberg boat) had rabbeted rabbeted stems, in Jay's boat the stem has been hollowed out in order for the front of the plank to be riveted rather than nailed to the stem (as seen on Skuldelev 5). This makes just as strong of a stem that is less likely to stave out in heavy seas. To this day the Åfjordsbåts (the last true descendants of the long boat) don’t rabbit there stems to accept planks.

I hope you don’t take offense at my correction. I just wanted to defend the truth in something I’m very passionate about.
Har de bra!

do you share blue prints for free? can I scale it down to about 14-21 foot an still be sea worthy?
a420 llama; no problem - or you just google a faroe boat - there you have your boat already.
Anyone know if theyre using hand hewn lumber? follow up question, anyone know if youve got to wear a stupid hat to work on one of these?
No and no
Yep Boats have a Spirit. It center is usually up at the Bow right in line with the deck or a little above the deck. On a calm day pull the bow in to the dock. get it close were you can place your hand on the bow area as if you are petting a horse and see if you do not agree.
Tell the truth. That's not a "trading boat" you're building there, that's a war vessel, used to pillage.
Thank's a lot :)
lol i liked how he used "Trading" when referring to the vikings...
Seeing as they were people who went on a viking (travel overseas): Yes, they did alot of trading, as well as raiding and exploration.
Here they came for trading and 'stuff', and then one day they all jumped in the river like lemmings and drowned. Go figure, foreigners often can't hold the local beer.
How many more times do we have to hear about Norway taking all the credit for the Danes. The danish and Swedish and ya some Norwegians but even the history channel gets it wrong so whatever lol. Ragnar Lothbrook and Bjorn Ironsides were Swedish! There tombs are even there and known as the first some day rulers or “kings” of Sweden. 🇸🇪 🇩🇰 The real “Vikings” even though they never referred to themselves as Vikings and nor did the English. They were Danes or Northman not Vikings but they did go on “Vikings”. Sorry had to vent lol Norway gets all the credit lol that’s like saying South America were the real Roman Empire. Lol
I’m Swedish also lol could be another reason.
By the way the blonde lady at the end is gorgeous!
I literally just moved to skagit county like few months go from Sweden 🇸🇪. So weird. So weird. It’s nice place tho but a lot of crime..
Other way around, they were first known for trading, then the other stuff.
Not using sawed and power planed planks it's not authentic. Norsemen used axes and draw knifes.
A replica boat , not really done the viking way thus not a real viking boat but a replica viking boat . I guess next step would be fit it with a engine ( swedes would ).
The engine fitment is a requirement to avoid risk and potential rescue at great expense.
Power tools. Bleh. No Viking would have used a saw, the wood loses it's strength when it's sawn and not hewn.
So what did they do? How did they cut the wood?
@@hungarianhillbilly4144 they split the wood and then hew it
niemannd- vikings were masters of the axe. Google hewing axe
Shunkawakan Okawingha I’m sure you could do much better 😂
how much does one of those boat cost?
yes very nice, do you know any where to get plans for building a tribekkur?

Look for plans for a Faering its on of the smallest "viking ships"

I made it too few weeks ago. Want to know how ? just look for Woodglut.
Classy .
So your anger towards me is because you do not like to be corrected, or is there some other reason?
its a shame to call this boat a Viking-ship. It will break in half on the ocean.
The Vikings used the root from Pinus sylvestris for framing and they did not cut it like you did, but they found roots that had grown into the right shape by nature. It is much more flexible and durable than a log cut into shape. The poor way you fasten the boards to the bow-stem is also not like any Viking-ship.
