Between
April and September 2012 we'll be building a full size - 16 metres -
reconstruction of a Bronze Age sewn-plank boat. This is the first time
that a boat of this type and size has been built in modern times. The
completed boat will put to sea to help discover how similar boats might
have performed 4000 years ago. - See more at:

The completed boat will put to sea to help discover how similar boats might have performed 4000 years ago.
The oldest boats found in the UK date from the Bronze Age (2500 to 800 BC). They are known as sewn-plank boats because the planks of wood that form the hull of the boat are sewn together using twisted fibres of yew. Moss rope is used to caulk the seams between the planks, which helps keep the hull watertight. - See more at: http://www.nmmc.co.uk/index.php?/collections/featured_boats/boat_building_2012bc#sthash.xf8xvsem.dpuf
