The specific name of Leif's ship is not known - the Vikings used several types of boats. It was likely Leif's boat was either a Dragon boat (Drakar) or a Longboat (Skuders). The smaller support boat (Karvi) is an unlikely option

Since he was traveling on the open seas, there is some chance that he used a merchantmen or 'high seas boat' (Hafskip) either a 'Knarr' or 'Byrdingr'.
