The launching of the ship was successful and the Viking ship, now named Munin, was taking off from the shore with a big shear from the satisfied crowd. The maiden trip went smooth as the ship was moved from the launching place to the Maritime Museum.

	The ship is being launched.		With big applause in the background the first crew-members are stepping on board.



	The oars are getting sorted out and handed to the right oarsman.		Chris, the master ship builder, is checking the last details before the ship is taking off on it's maiden trip.



	Mikhail is giving instructions to Freydis.		Everyone is on board and it's time to put the oars in place.



	Isn't this a beautiful sight? The ship looks great as the crew takes her away on it's maiden trip.		The rowing went fine for the crew and they were taking the ship along the shore where people were following her towards the Maritime Museum.



	People came out in their boats to get a close look at this unusual sight on the pacific coast!		The ship went out with a few different crews during the day. This gave a lot of people the chance to have a true Viking experience!
