Viking Ship |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| This Viking ship, on display at the Viking Museum in Oslo, Norway, is an example of lapstrake construction. In Viking ships of the 10th century and later, external planks were overlapped and lashed to the ship’s frame, producing a strong, flexible hull. | ||||||
