- The Viking ship Lofotr is a replica of the Gokstad ship. The Gokstad ship is a ship from the end of the 800's, excavated in the summer of 1880 at the farm Gokstad in Sandefjord, Norway.
Lofotr is built in the barn of the parsonage of Borg Vestvågøy, Norway and issued out of a boat building courses funded by the Labour Administration and Vestvågøy municipality in the period 1991-1992. It belongs to the Viking Museum Lofotr, which is owned by Vestvågøy municipality.
Lofotr is one of very few who have not installed an engine in the ship.
Crew members are volunteers, some back to the launching in 1992, one of them was even helping to build the ship.
Vikingskipet Lofotr er en rekonstruksjon av Gokstadskipet, et vikingskip fra slutten av 800-tallet, utgravd sommeren 1880 på gården Gokstad i Sandefjord, Norge.
Lofotr er bygd i fjøset på prestegården på Borg Vestvågøy og ble til gjennom et båtbyggerkurs finansiert av Arbeidsmarkedsetaten og Vestvågøy kommune i perioden 1991-1992. og tilhører vikingmuseet Lofotr. Som er eid av Vestvågøy kommune.

It heartens the soul to see these magnificent Dragons being brought back to life. They are a true testament to who we were, and who we still are. Well done!!
Virkelig en flott film, og seilet er blitt kjempefint !
What a beautiful ship!!
Amazingly wonderful. Congrats from Venice!
Que hermoso 😍😍
Sophicated sailing on a very sophisticated vessel. Flying the sail like a giant kite to smoothly transfer power to the hull. Dancing with the green eel.
A smell of tar and turpentine,
The whistle of wind in stays,
The hissing wake like passing time,
Brings memory of old days...

Beautiful
that's a beautiful ship !!!
Heja Norge.
I'm from Indonesia and sailing with sail warship is my dream
You can see why they were such devastating raiders. Long, streamlined fore and aft, (making for a high "natural" hull speed) with a relatively large sail for their size. They were devastatingly fast in their time. They could appear over the horizon, charge to shore, and disgorge raiding parties before any effective defense could be mobilized. Even better if they came at night. Then raid the place (facing only the local villagers), get back on the ships with their loot and hightail it back over the horizon before any soldiers could arrive to engage them.
Smoothly sailings
Love it! Wished I was part or the crew.
Muy bonito, un saludo desde Ribadeo, Galicia ,Spain
Vakre!!
Tough people freezing their butts off. Can you imagine the determination way back when to leave the comfort of home and sail away to places unknown, in the 10th century they traveled the Americas, I wonder how many died in the attempt to discover new lands. Now we all sit around and complain about our internet service, humanity sure has changed.
True
If I have bad internet service then I can't watch viking videos.
+Dan Slash If the Vikings had Internet service back then and lost it in the middle of a voyage out at sea, they would have complained too! Then they would have attacked their provider and killed some and took the rest as slaves then burned the building to the ground! They paid a lot of silver for Internet service, they expected it to work! They didn't want to hear about "dead spots" in the fjords or Vinland! Sounds familiar.
People were Not Pussies then
Wow it's fast man
@geirarej

@vikingskipdotcom Takk :)
I´d love to be on board !
🌎😇💪👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
what speed do u get up to ???
Is this that one boat that cost 400.000 dollars?
What is the minimum amount of people that could sail a ship this size?
+Craig Auchinachie i belive the minimum for a smaller sized ship like this would be 5. but that would probably be the utter minimum
Wish I could build or buy one on a smaller scale
The Viking Ship Museum in Denmark makes them, go have a look, it's fascinating

Lofotr = Lynx foot?
Dan Slash
I think it’s an adjective derived from the Lofoten Islands.
I translate “Lofotr Viking ship” as “a Viking ship from the Lofoten Islands”
Lofotr is the old name of Vestvågøy, which is the island in the middle of Lofoten.
Lofotr can mean lynx foot.
but it is one of several options
