Which constraint critically limited the size of Viking longships, despite advanced construction, during transatlantic voyages?

💡 Explanation

A longship`s hull was subject to transverse bending moment because its length created significant stress; therefore, excessive length risked structural failure rather than stability issues, sail availability, or navigation constraints becoming the limiting factors on overall size.
