What are two differences between a viking long ship and a viking trade ship?

Viking long ships could be used for stealth raids because of their thinness and fastness and were Generally used to cut/power on through the ocean. The long ships also had a flexible hull, to bend with the action of the waves and another characteristic of the hull helped it 'cut' through the water (as i've said before). Trade ships were wider than the long ships and had longer sides. They also contained a few oars and obviously, because of the name, they were used to trade so they usually had livestock and other things on board.
