The knarr, a Norse cargo ship, typically lacked oar holes in the middle because it was primarily designed for sailing rather than rowing. Its construction emphasized a deep hull and a broad beam, which provided stability and capacity for cargo. The absence of oar holes also allowed for a more efficient use of space and a stronger hull structure, making it better suited for long-distance trade across the North Atlantic.
