Boatyard
The Boatyard 14th August 2009
The Viking Ship Museum’s boatyard
The boatyard is on the Museum Lake and the work is carried out so that the public can follow the work closely.
The boatyard builds clinker-built boats and its purpose is to preserve the maritime crafts that are associated with these boats.
The boatyard specializes in reconstructions of prehistoric boats in full scale using the methods of the time. But we also build new boats based on old traditions and we restore and repair old boats. We accept building assignments from private sources and from other museums.
The old types of boat can withstand most weather

It takes teamwork to sail the traditional boats. Oars, sails and cordage must be managed
They are perfect for school classes, family events or team-building exercises
