    I like a viking ship as much as the next guy, but this is a bit crazy. And he wants to cross the atlantic in it!!

    And it only took two years - a real one might take longer!?

            This qualifies for a My Stupid State thread. The moron's from Jacksonville.

                  but not made out of lolipop sticks. I think he deserves an honoury 'viking' tag - even if he is from jacksonville(is that east coast? the vikings did land there before Columbus discorvered the Americas - so he could be blood related).

                  And he's crazy without doubt.

                  But cool ships black cat i love em like they were my very own

                    The Vikings never made it to Florida. Not even North Florida.

                      Actually, it's the same ship, just without mast on the one. If you like that kind of pics, take a look here :



                      It's going to visit Dublin sometime in 2007 on a trip around the british island. Though, I can't guarantee any raids - too much police these days

                        @Che,

                        It was around Minnesota wasn't it? In theory with the "vinland saga's" anyway. I think they did make a landing - there are some interesting myths(and odd genetics) among the native american peoples from around that area they supposidly did land.

                        If this guy is from Florida then he could be one of those 'sea dogs' types - people who move to where they can keep a boat easily.
                        I rekon he could be a real viking and i like what he's done - - i'd buy him a beer, exchange salty seadog stories and tell him he is crazy

                        And extra for that link black cat - wooden boats, hides and sails: makes me want to sign up for another such adventure right away

                              They should skip Brittain and go to Ireland instead. Pick up some slaves there, move on to Iceland and start writing more of those incredible sagas. Icelandic Vikings

                              Edit: oops, overlooked Dublin in your post. The rest still stands though...
                              Within weeks they'll be re-opening the shipyards
                              And notifying the next of kin
