The Viking longship was superior to earlier ships due to its innovative design, which combined speed, agility, and the ability to navigate both open seas and shallow rivers. Its shallow draft allowed for beach landings and exploration of inland waterways, while the clinker-built construction provided strength and flexibility. Additionally, the longship's sail and oars enabled efficient travel, making it ideal for raiding, trading, and exploration across vast distances. This versatility contributed significantly to the Vikings' success as seafarers and explorers.
