JohnnyTarr Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 Ok I was wondering just who where the best shipbuilder and who were the best sailors? They don't have to be the same. my vote for best sailors would have to be the Vikings. Just for pure courage, and distance traveled. Git up of your asses, set up those glasses I'm drinking this place dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchman Posted August 2, 2008 Share Posted August 2, 2008 i'd go polynisians on the sailors. They made charts out of a wooden frame string and shells. vikings were civilized compared to these folks. relatively recent history shipbuilders would go to the herreshoff brothers.
