About the cook's diary

The web version of the steward's log contains excerpts from the journal of food and water consumption kept aboard the Sea Stallion from Glendalough. The log is kept by Jens Kristian Knudsen Jensen, a qualified butcher, and Solvej Lyng-Jørgensen, who have acted as stewards aboard the Sea Stallion since 2004.

Records of the food consumed during the voyage will provide an indication of the number of calories required to sail a Viking ship from Roskilde to Dublin.

Food and water consumption data will also give an insight into the logistics necessary to provision a ship with a 65 man crew.
