Drakkar Dragon Viking Ship Wooden Model 15"
This high quality, highly detailed, intermediate level, Viking ship model is Brand New, fully assembled and ready for display (not a kit). This item requires some semi-assembly you will need to raise up the mast.
This viking ship model was specially designed & built by the plank on bulkhead method (joining multiple small pieces of wood like Rosewood, Mahogany, Teak and other exotic tropical wood together on the hull). The sailboat model is built exactly to scale as the original Drakkar Viking Ship was with many details. The task required skillful craftsmen hundreds of hours to accomplish. Some nice features of this model is the cast metal dragon head, oar racks and the lapstrake hull.
Drakkar or Longship (Drakkar as Ormen Lange, means the Long Snake was decorated with a dragon head figurehead) known as a Dragon Ship by the Vikings enemies. These warships along with their fearless Viking crewmembers terrified Europe millenniums ago. In those days only a Viking King could afford a ship of this size (around 28 meters). The ships were used as assault ships and could deliver up to 400 Viking Warriors to a coastal battle field. The decks were planked over and there were no sleeping quarters aboard, personal gear was stored in chests which the rowers used for seats when rowing. The model measures 15" long from bow to stern. It's a fabulous ship model that will be a conversation piece for any room or office.
Larger & Smaller Size Drakkar Dragon Viking Longship Models are Available.
