Asset Overview
Although less prestigious than the Dreki (from which derives “Drakkar”), Snekkars formed the bulk of the Scandinavian “Langskips”. The Snekkar (“Snake Ship”) is a very ancient Scandinavian term for distinguishing certain warships among Langskips. The name “snake” which by analogy to the Drakkar of the Western archaeologists will give the famous “Snekkar”, was a reference not peculiar to the figurehead but to the length of the ship or rather to its length/width ratio of 7/1 which Is the lowest of all Scandinavian vessels. Some wrecks discovered had an inferior ratio of 11/1. Such a ship was unstable and designed for pure speed. Therefore Snekkars were very fast warships.
