Read about these guys in the news the other day (if they’re the same folks). They’re recreating Viking vessels and passages to better understand their culture.

That’s a Nordlandsbåt, they carry a lot of cultural significance in northern Norway. Saw a lot of them when I went to Lofoten a couple of years back

It's a Nordland boat design, a historic vessel but about 700 years after the vikings.

I happen to know of some historical ship recreations in Copenhagen; see detail of historicism in recreating even the smallest details is astonishing

Headed to Ireland for some pillaging.
