What do you do once you’ve finished building a Viking ship by hand? You take it out to sea, of course. That’s exactly what one North County man did, and KPBS North County reporter Alexander Nguyen was there.
He grew so enamored with that ship that when he retired, he decided to build a ship of his own based on the plans from that boat, which was a replica of the Gokstad — a Viking ship unearthed from an ancient burial mound.
“We’re a little nervous. It’s the first time,” said Ivar Schoenmeyr, Kottmeier's partner-in-crime."We have never used the rudder. We want to know how the ship behaves. And becomes comfortable with that.”Tom Kottmeier, his friend Ivar Schoenmeyr, and a group of Viking re-enactors rowed his hand-built Viking ship around Mission Bay, March 13, 2023.
