Which navigational consequence arose when a Viking longship lacked ballast?

💡 Explanation

Reduced ballast diminished the longship's restoring moment. The resulting roll amplification increased the capsize risk because the center of gravity was abnormally high, therefore stability suffered, rather than other issues with speed and vibration from a more rigid keel design.
