Your Resource Guide To Owning A New Viking Yacht

For more than 50 years, Viking Yachts has been building the highest quality sportfishing boats and motor yachts in the world. With countless Billfish tournament wins by Viking owners, cutting-edge design and technology on new models, and the relentless pursuit to 'Build A Better Boat Every Day', the Viking brand has achieved legendary status. There simply is no other competitor boat on the market today, or for the last several decades, that has come close to splashing as many hulls as the Viking factory. 

In this Viking resource guide for new owners, we will touch on the available models being offered today, what makes Viking so special, what it takes to own one, when you need a captain, and the after-purchase experience. The team at SI Yachts has spent countless hours at the Viking factory and are experts at helping clients into the best model for their needs so call us today to get started at (718) 984-7676 .

What Makes A Viking Yacht Special?

Look no further than the New Jersey based factory to see why Viking Yachts are of a different breed. Known for their groundbreaking manufacturing capabilities that allow 90% of every Viking to be built-in-house, the Viking factory should be known as the 8th wonder of the world. Stretching over 800,000 square feet, the factory has its own hospital, water supply, kitchen, and almost 800 solar panels to help power one of its main buildings. Many of the team members that build each Viking are second and even third generation Viking employees.

Except for components on board like the engines, transmissions, pumps, hoses, air conditioning units, electronics, and tuna towers (done at Palm Beach Towers , Viking's own subsidiary), everything else is produced right at the Viking factory ensuring the most thorough quality control efforts in the industry. Being a debt-free company has its advantages as well. In recent years, Viking has re-invested millions of dollars into new technology and improvements at its factory, giving Viking the ability to improve their models to unprecedented levels. From multiple CNC routers for cutting composite and wood parts to multiple $1 million five-axis profilers, which create foam plugs to build complex molds, Viking clearly defines what it means to be cutting-edge. And yet, with a dedicated, talented and skilled workforce, the human element is equally dynamic.

You Have Decided You Want To Own A Viking Yacht. What's Next?

There are many factors to consider when purchasing a Viking. What size should you buy and what is your budget? Should you look at new or pre-owned? Can I trade my existing boat in? Can I drive it myself or do I need a captain? Our best advice to new Viking owners is to consult with an expert. It doesn't cost you anything but time to have a conversation with our team here at SI Yachts . Having sold countless boats since 1964, we have helped first-time buyers into a new boat only to have them come back decades later for their 10th+ yacht. We can be as much or as little involved with the process as you'd like and are more than willing to hold your hand every step of the way. Learn more about the history of SI Yachts and how we offer an unprecedented level of customer service.

Here are a few answers to the some of the questions that may be on your mind:

1. Which Viking model should I buy? Viking builds boats from 37 to 93 feet in length so the first thing to consider is your budget and how you plan to use it. The smallest model, the 37 Billfish which has been replaced by the 38 Billfish , will sell for around $1 million. The 93 Motor Yacht has an asking price of over $10 million. Understanding your budget can help guide you in your decision of selecting a new or pre-owned Viking Yacht for sale . The next consideration is whether or not you want to fish or cruise. Even Viking's hardcore fishing models have luxurious and comfortable interiors that can be used for extended cruising. Viking's re-emergence as a leader in the motor yacht market with the 75MY , 82 Cockpit Motor Yacht , and the 93MY , has given potential yacht owners more of a dedicated cruising selection of boats.

2. Is there somewhere I can see all of the Viking Yachts in one place? Viking holds several events every year aimed at introducing new models, allowing customers to get on board the boats, and compare the models side-by-side. In September of 2018, Viking held their annual Sea Trial Event i n Atlantic City, NJ where dealers, factory representatives, and Viking management all got together with their customers to spend 2 days on sea trials of select new models. Customers were able to ask questions, dig in the engine rooms, measure the staterooms, and learn from the experts about the product. Additionally, Viking has approximately 15 models at the major boat shows like the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show each November and the Miami Yacht Show in February.

SI Yachts also invites potential customers to take a trip with us to the Viking factory. Being in such close proximity to New Gretna, NJ has its advantages and it's easy to take a trip over. Visiting the factory is a great way to see firsthand the craftsmanship that goes into each vessel and even meet Mr. Healey!

3. Do I need to hire a captain? It depends on what model you choose. Depending on your experience, it may be wise to hire a captain if this is your first yacht. Models like the new Billfish Series coming out soon can be driven by an owner as can some of the smaller open and convertible models like the 44 Convertible or 48 Sport Tower . As a service to our customers, our team at SI Yachts will give you a thorough training on your new Viking that will leave you feeling confident. We will spend as long as you need going over the operations of the boat, the controls, electronics, and all components. We are available to our customers 7 days a week to answer any questions so you will always feel like there is a support team behind you. If you decide you would like to hire a captain, our team would be happy to help you find some options. There are also online placement services like Boat Captain's Directory .

4. I own a boat already. Can I trade it in towards my new Viking? Absolutely. SI Yachts is one of the few yacht dealers in the Northeast that have the financial capacity to take your boat in on trade. Whether you are a center-console owner looking to move up into a Sportfish or own a cruising boat and want to upgrade to a motor yacht, SI Yachts will evaluate the condition of your boat and offer a fair market value. If you're curious now about the value of your current boat, visit our online form , enter the information, and we'll get back to you shortly with an estimated value.

If trading in your current boat isn't an option, allow SI Yachts to list it for sale in our Diamond Listing Brokerage program . We offer the latest marketing tools to sell your boat quickly and efficiently such as the two leading industry MLS systems, major print publications like Power & Motor Yacht, Yachtworld.com, Google marketing, our social media channels like Facebook , our industry and customer email databases, and so much more.

5. Should I build a new boat from scratch or buy one that is in stock? This is a discussion to have with your SI Yachts Viking Sales Professional. There are advantages and disadvantages to both scenarios and our team will help you weigh those to make the best decision for you. Building a new boat means that you get to visit the factory and watch it come to life from the hull being set to the teak deck being laid. You can select exactly what fabrics you want, your hull color, your components, your engines, and even change the layout of the boat. While this does mean it's going to take longer for you to have your new boat, it will indeed be your new boat, built to your specifications. Being that Viking is continuously building boats, it is sometimes possible to buy a model that is currently on the production line, as long as it's not too far along to make your desired changes. Generally it takes less than a year from deposit to delivery when purchasing a brand new Viking.

If having a Viking now is important, SI Yachts has new Vikings in-stock and can also find available boats at the factory or around the country. 

6.  Why Viking Yachts are so expensive? Simply put, you're paying for quality. Viking is arguably the best built boat in the world. The team behind the product are among the most passionate about boating and fishing as anyone in the industry so there never any compromises when it comes to the quality of a Viking. The investments are made in the people, the technology, the machinery, and the very best materials available. There is a reason Viking Yachts is the number one sportfish builder in the world and it's not because they cut corners to save money. Sure you're paying for the yacht, but you're also paying for the peace of mind and confidence in your boat that only Viking and its partners can bring.

Viking Yachts also hold their value extremely well on the pre-owned market. Late-model, low-hour, pre-owned Vikings tend to sell quickly and for very close to the original purchase price. 

7. What choices do I have on selecting equipment for my Viking? Every Viking and every Valhalla are almost entirely built inside the Viking shipyard or at Viking Mullica. While Viking is considered a production boat, there are many customization options available for each model. From using an interior designer to select your furniture and accents, to choosing the best refrigeration system, to selecting the right outriggers for your needs, owners can rest easy knowing that Viking has sourced only the top vendors for such equipment. Exact options vary by model and full option lists can be sent to you by request. For an overview of what equipment vendors Viking uses, read " The Value Is In The Details With Viking ."

Selecting What Viking Model You Want

As mentioned above, once you figure out your budget and how you plan to use your boat, the next step is selecting what model you are interested in. Viking has split their model line-up into 6 different groups: Billfish, Open Series, Sport Towers, Convertibles, Enclosed Bridges, and Motor Yachts.

Viking Billfish : The Billfish series first began when Viking purchased the waterfront boat-building factory from Ocean Yachts and called it Viking Mullica. One of Ocean's best selling models was the 37 Billfish, which Viking took the molds and put their stamp on the model. The 37 Billfish proved to be highly successful as it was an excellent "step up" for big center-console owners who wanted the versatility and accommodations of a sportfish, but staying under the 40-foot mark. Viking will now launch a 38 Billfish and a 46 Billfish in 2019. There were new photos just released of the Viking 38 Billfish in March, 2019.

Viking Open Series : The Open Series consists of 4 models from 38 to 52 feet. The popular Viking 42 Open has been replaced by the new 44 Open , and the  38 Open will debut sometime in 2019. The Open Series is popular among anglers who want a fast, maneuverable boat with a tuna tower and an open-air feel. These are athletic, racy express cruisers outfitted with a fiberglass hardtop that cruise in the 30-knot range and top out in the mid-to-upper 30 knot range depending on the model and engine selection.

Viking Sport Tower / Sport Yacht Series : There are 2 models in the Sport Yachts / Sport Tower series, each with their own variation. The Viking 48SC and 48ST are the same exact boat, only the 48ST has a Palm Beach Tuna Tower. The Viking 52SC and 52ST are of the same format. With large cockpits, three-sided fiberglass air-conditioned deckhouses, and speedy MAN diesel engines, the Viking Sport Yacht or Tower model line is for anglers looking for a fun boat for the owner/operator.

Viking Convertibles : The most popular model segment of Viking Yachts is undoubtedly the Convertible. Ranging from 42 feet to the flagship Sportfish model, the 92C , there is a Viking Convertible Sportfisherman for every budget and need. Viking's latest convertible models include the  44 Convertible , 58 Convertible , and 68 Convertible . Also read:

Viking Enclosed Bridge Yachts : If you are boating in colder climates or simply want the advantages of having A/C and heat in your upper helm, then an enclosed bridge model may be the best choice for you. Viking's enclosed bridges are known for their plush accommodations that turn them into an additional living space on board the boat as well as being the upper helm control station. Viking's latest enclosed bridge models include the 68EB which has excellent visibility from its wrap-around windshield. There is also a custom polished stainless steel staircase that joins the main deck salon and the enclosed bridge.

Viking Motor Yachts : If cruising in luxury, entertaining guests, and living aboard for extended journeys to exotic destinations sounds appealing, then consider one of Viking's 3 Motor Yacht models. Each Viking Motor Yacht has Viking's impeccable construction and quality, but also their exterior styling for a sleek, yet refined, look. The interior accommodations are massive and there are countless spaces on board each model for relaxing, sunbathing, dining al fresca, or simply enjoying the enjoying the view from the flybridge lounge. Explore the Viking 75MY , 82 Cockpit Motor Yacht , and the flagship 93 Motor Yacht at the next major boat show.

What Kind Of Service Options Are Available On My New Viking Yacht?

Viking Yachts are incredibly well-built vessels, but like any yacht at some point you are going to need service.When it comes to servicing your new boat, no one has you covered like SI Yachts and the Viking team. Staten Island Marina offers a full service team that has years of experience working on Vikings in particular. Their capabilities include everything from engine replacement to installing teak decks, changing out electronics, to bottom jobs and painting the hull.

(Staten Island Marina and Service Center pictured below)

Viking Yachts 90 Review: New Flagship Boat Replaces the 92

• By Peter Frederiksen
• May 9, 2023

Freshly launched at the 2023 Miami International Boat Show, the Viking 90 is the company’s new flagship, replacing its popular 92-footer that was launched in the 2015 model year. Viking built and delivered 21 of the 92s, and was prepared to continue, but new International Maritime Organization emission regulations required the installation of heavy, large, and potentially dangerous Selective Catalytic Reduction systems. Because the required equipment to deal with these changes neither existed nor would be available to maintain the boat’s production schedule, Viking was forced to discontinue the production of the 92.

A bitter tale perhaps, but since 1964, when Bill and Bob Healey founded the Viking Yacht Company in New Gretna, New Jersey, the builder has dealt with all sorts of stumbling blocks, including the early 1990s federal luxury tax that crushed the marine industry, and several recessions. Recent challenges include COVID-related supply-chain issues and a proposed 10-knot East Coast speed restriction due to right whale conundrums. Yet, somehow, none of these obstacles stopped Viking from carrying out its mantra to “build a better boat every day.”

Some 5,000 boats later, Viking president and CEO Pat Healey charged his design, engineering, and production teams to renew that commitment again and build a new flagship. Investing $20 million in research and creating more than 240 new molds, including hull, topside, flybridge and interior, and pouring in reservoirs of sweat equity and tens of thousands of man-hours, the unveiling of the new Viking 90 as a flagship is no fish story. As with any Viking, a new model must be as good as or better than what it replaces, and the Viking 90 is all that and more.

Cockpit and Mezzanine

The 90’s cockpit is 224 square feet and includes a 203-gallon livewell built into the ­transom that can double as a fish box. A pair of 103-gallon ­insulated fish boxes line the cockpit sole, and each can be refrigerated or serve as a depository for the dual Eskimo ice chippers. A watertight centerline deck hatch opens to access the Seakeeper 35 ­gyrostabilizer for maintenance and routine inspections.

The cockpit work area resembles the 92, so there is undergunwale storage, and the lower-mezzanine ­seating ­provides air conditioning for relaxing, watching baits, and staying close to the cockpit action. Insulated boxes and other compartments stow gear, drinks and tackle, and the crew quarters are also accessed through this area. The upper mezzanine is reached by way of ­flanking steps from the cockpit sole and includes an L-shaped aft-­facing lounge, a teak table, and an available 43-inch flat-screen ­television that drops down from the overhead. Another ­seating area to starboard ­provides an electric grill, a cocktail ice machine, and drawer ­storage. Artisan teak decking and a faux-teak bulkhead and cockpit trim work make for a custom feel.

Interior and Accommodations

Stepping into the salon through the electric sliding door, you can see that the interior matches what the 92 provided, starting with access to the enclosed bridge via a wide staircase to starboard. The 92’s interior was a hit with each owner, so the design group capitalized on those previous efforts, essentially fitting the interior accommodations of the 92 into the new 90 hull and deckhouse footprints.

A massive U-shaped lounge to port faces the starboard-side entertainment center with a 65-inch television that rises from the walnut cabinetry, which is available in either a satin or gloss finish, along with a wet bar, sink and icemaker. Slightly forward, the starboard galley with engineered-stone countertops offers tremendous space for several place settings, five bar stools, and commercial-grade appliances. Opposite the galley, there’s an immense U-shaped walnut table on a raised platform that provides a home for rod storage. There is a day head to port and a walk-in pantry to starboard that can also serve as a makeshift stateroom.

The 90-footer’s design group reworked the 92’s overnight accommodations and tweaked an inch here and there to refine the available space with the goal to streamline each stateroom while retaining the size of each bed and entryway. The master stateroom utilizes the full beam, providing a king-size walk-around bed, end tables, credenza, 65-inch television, walk-in closet, lounge seat, ­vanity and desk. His-and-her heads are separated by a walk-in ­glass-framed shower. Four other staterooms, each with a private head and fiberglass shower, provide comfort and privacy. The aft crew quarters also include a small galley and laundry center, enabling the 90 to easily spend a month at sea.

Hull No. 1 is built with a ­climate-­controlled enclosed bridge with the skybridge option, with 9-plus feet of ­freeboard ­forward and 3-plus feet aft.

The unbroken ­sheerline melds these dimensions into a silky-smooth transition from bow to stern, and bridge to waterline. The enclosed bridge adds a number of features, including a second salon with an L-shaped lounge, a high-low walnut cocktail table, refrigeration, and a 43-inch pop-up television. The command helm is a home run, and especially noteworthy for its one-piece, wraparound forward windshield that maximizes the operator’s visibility without the typical ­distractions caused by vertical mullions. The added visibility also benefits passengers sitting in the flanking Stidd companion seats, whose view is equally unobstructed. Viking ­subsidiary Atlantic Marine Electronics equipped the helm with five 24-inch Seatronx MFDs, while the lower portion of the helm console is outfitted with radio boxes, instruments, SidePower bow-thruster controls, Optimus steering, and MTU engine controls.

Outside, AME complemented the aft-station layout with a pair of Seatronx 19-inch displays, which also include full engine ­controls and ­communication ­equipment. A sitting area is to port, ­separated by a ladder to the ­skybridge. The skybridge ­features the craftsmanship of Viking’s other subsidiary, Palm Beach Towers, which completed the ­fiberglass hardtop and added a host of accessories, ­including Rupp hydraulic outriggers, spreader lights, teaser reels, ­custom bridge railings, and a radar pod. Viking also offers the 90 convertible in an ­open-bridge style.

Engine Room and Performance

The gleaming Snow White Awlgrip-painted engine room has more than 7 feet of headroom on the centerline, with 40 inches between the main engines. Twin 2,600 hp MTUs provide walkaround accessibility to various systems, including the Furuno CSH8L sonar tube, Octoplex digital switching system, and the Optimus steering system. Components are neatly labeled, and composite seacocks help stem corrosion and reduce weight.

The centralized seawater system has been redesigned to reduce complexity and incorporates ElectroSea’s Clearline system with dual pumps to increase reliability and component longevity. A chilled-water air-conditioning system provides 18 tons of cooling with reverse-cycle heat and individual controls throughout the interior.

Twelve people were on board for our sea trial off the coast of Palm Beach, Florida. With a fuel load of 70 percent, the 90 hustled to an average top speed of 38 knots, where one pass read 39.3 knots on the GPS. At 2,100 rpm, the boat eases along at 32-plus knots to deliver a range of some 582 nautical miles.

The Viking Yacht Company hasn’t missed a beat in nearly 60 years of continuous production, and the passing of its 92 is just another milestone in the company’s history. So, it’s safe to say, with 16 90-footers already on order, the beat goes on.

Viking's Game-Changing Fleet of Center Consoles

Since its inception in 2019, Valhalla Boatworks (VBW) has established itself as the world leader in semi-custom high-performance luxury center consoles. Created, owned and operated by the Viking Yacht Company, the legendary builder of the world’s finest sportfishing yachts, Valhalla Boatworks offers seven center consoles from 28 to 55 feet in its game-changing V Series.

Like the Viking fleet, the V-33, V-37, V-41, V-46 and V-55 deliver unmatched performance, engineering, comfort, quality and fishing capabilities. The V Series center consoles thrive as hard-core fishing boats, fun family sport cruisers or luxury yacht tenders. The recently announced V-28 and V-29 will also provide unmatched capability and accommodations.

The V Series is the result of the cooperative effort of the Viking Design & Engineering team and Michael Peters Yacht Design (MPYD). The V Series utilizes MPYD’s patented Stepped-V Ventilated Tunnel running surface that reduces drag while increasing speed, stability and efficiency.

“It’s the most advanced and proven stepped-hull design in the world,” says Viking Design Manager David Wilson. “The twin steps and tunnel not only give you fast and efficient performance but also precise handling and a very stable ride.”

The design traits of Viking convertibles can be seen throughout these center consoles. Proud bows, gently sloping S-shaped sheers, double forward chines, helm pods, raised toe rails and mezzanine seating are some of the hallmarks. Viking engineering and mechanical prowess shine through, with customized Seakeeper installations that maintain storage or deck space and mechanical, plumbing and electrical systems designed and built to unprecedented levels. You’ll be hard pressed to find a center console with a higher level of fit and finish than a Valhalla.

The same resources of Viking’s vertically integrated company are at the disposal of Valhalla Boatworks owners, so standard and custom components and systems of each build such as hardtops, marlin or gap towers and electronics packages are being designed and installed in-house by our experienced shipwrights to guarantee turnkey delivery. Hardtop packages can be loaded with top-shelf components in flawless installations.

Valhalla Boatworks offers outboards from both Mercury and Yamaha in twin, triple or quad applications depending on the model. The efficiency of the stepped-hull design combined with the advanced outboard technology provide best-in-class speed, fuel economy and range. Low engine-noise and vibration levels, electronic power steering and optional joystick helm control systems with GPS station-keeping make operating your V Series an enjoyable, stress-free experience.

Bottom Line: The V Series stands out as a truly unique fleet of center consoles in a market saturated with similarity.

Please contact Valhalla Boatworks for more information about any of these models.
