I artikeln står det:

The burial site is around 17ft long and 5ft wide – the same size as the Viking vessel the warrior was buried in, which has almost completely rotted away. Only some 200 metal rivets used to hold the boat together remain, with tiny splinters of wood attached.

Båten bör då ha varit ca 5,1 m lång och 1,5 m bred.

Enligt Gunilla Larsson så var Valsgärde 9 ca 5.45 m lång och 1.07 bred.
