Hello Ulfrikr,
Your plan sounds wonderful! I'd bet some of our Oz sailors would take the
time to see your Viking ship as she sails up the Parramatta River. I
strongly recommend prudence, however, regarding the customary raping and
pillaging : )

A fine post!
And you can be forgiven for cross-posting to us since it's sailing
related.
Of course everyone knows that Odin "send[s] the wind and turn[s] the
tide!"

My thanks for the acceptance of the cross-post, I merely worked the
reply button and hence caught you folk as well.

On more sailing/Asatru related matters, what is interesting is not
only that Odin is seen as having much to do with sailing in the
Northern Tradition, but also sailors of the region would call upon
Ran, and Aegir, and even Thor at times, all depending upon the effect
they wanted to achieve. A great seafaring folk, and I hope to one day
take part in the construction of a Viking age ship and sail up the
Parramatta River to Parramatta Park for a gathering. Now that would
be a sight to see. Well, a few more years yet before such a thing can
be done... but it's good to have a goal. (BTW, for those who are
interested, Parramatta is a suburb of Sydney, Australia).

There is a raiding party, from New Zealand, that is ready and poised
to raid Australia and remove the Bledisloe Cup...


But you said you were Irish, nazi boy?

What gives?

But what about Loki?

"The sea was angry that day, my friend. Like an old man trying to send
back soup at the
deli."

Invariably Loki would would have probably not been a god of choice to call
upon if one was a sailor in trouble. Albeit, given Loki's mercurial nature,
it is quite possible that if called upon he'd provide assistance, he is
after all not entirely malevolant, although it would be much more likely
that one of the other gods or goddesses would have been called upon.

Your Cat (for those non nautical minded folk out there, abbreviation for
Catamaran) is a fine looking vessel and I am sure that Loki is quite happy
with you naming your vessel after him. Hope the sailing goes well.

Indeed, I dare say the local constabulary would have something to say in
that regard as well

I know that a group in Brisbane built a longship, so we have the expertise
here in Australia to do it, just need to get some interested folk together
to get the project under way.

You will find an easily buildable such craft, redesigned for
madern materials, in "Boats with an open mind" Philip C Bolger,
McGraw Hill. It was commissioned bvy the Society for Creative
Anachronisms, but I think is now an available stock plan.
(Longboat, not knorr. You would need to supply the shields.)
