Special thanks to the crew of the Draken!

The Draken is also an experiment in figuring out how to sail a Viking square rigged longship. New crew needs to learn the old ways.
And a photo of me on the steering oar of the Draken as we sailed away from the #Odyssey and back to Norway.

@th does the mast go all the way to the keel? Lovely vessel!
@matoakit the Draken mast rests on ancient Norse coins
