Abstract

The article discusses the construction of a plywood replica of a 12th-century Nordic boat known as the Gislinge boat. The author, John Harris, describes his process of creating a stitch-and-glue interpretation of the traditional boat using modern materials and techniques. The replica aims to capture the essence of the original design while making it accessible to amateur builders. The article also highlights the challenges and successes of the project, including the boat's performance during sea trials. [Extracted from the article]
