These ocean-going warships, about 20 meters long, had a bow at the bow and stern so they could enter or leave in both directions. Thanks to a shallow draft of just under 1.5 meters, the Vikings could also sail or row rivers and thus raid inland areas. With their longships, also known as dragons, which were fast and agile at about 20 knots, the Vikings advanced as far as Iceland, Greenland, and even North America, as evidenced by settlement finds.
