Ao maior Barco Viking construído nos tempos modernos...

This clip was recently used to promote the ship in America . The first part is mainly from the summer of 2013. The second part shows the ship sailing at speeds up to 14 knots on her way back from Scotland over the North Sea.

With a length of 114 feet, 27 feet on the beam, displacing seventy tons, and with a 3,200 square foot sail of pure silk the ship is named after Harald Fairhair,
the king who unified Norway into one kingdom.


Construction began in March 2010 and the ship was launched in June 2012
Draken Harald Hårfagre is sailed by a crew of 29. The ship can also be rowed, and has 25 pairs of oars. With two people on each oar this gives a rowing crew of 100.
