The ships of the Maritime Experimental Centre differs considerably from most other Danish Viking ships, as the building was motivated far more by a desire to sail than a wish to recreate archaeological finds. This desire has led to the construction of a series of ships, of which the Nidhug and the Røde Orm (lit. Red Snake) are the largest. Røde Orm is based largely on the same construction as its big sister Nidhug, but carries fewer passengers. On the other hand, they are forced to row when the weather is not fit for hoisting the sail, as it is not - unlike its big sister - equipped with a motor. Se also the sistership Nidhug
