The Viking 68 convertible has a lot to offer with unmatched performance and advanced propulsion in a luxury yacht. Viking brought some of the attributes of larger models to this craft while managing to maintain the efficiency found in smaller sportfishing vessels.
Exhilarating performance is one attribute of the Viking 68 C. This vessel pushes to 40 knots at top speed and is powered with optional 1,945 mhp diesel MTU Series 2000 V12 M96L, while also allowing cruising at an impressive 35 knots. The vessel serves an extensive range with its 2,060 gallon fuel capacity.
This powerful yacht is spacious and provides 360-degree visibility from the flybridge center console walkaround helm offering the ship’s captain full wraparound views. The flanking companion seats joined by port and starboard lounges and a chair forward are also brilliant in design. There is abundant storage for food, bait, and drinks located in the forward top-loading freezer.
The flybridge is a favorite of tournament fishermen with its climate-controlled enclosed bridge with an optional spiral staircase from the salon. The enclosed bridge not only provides comfort and convenience but also serves as a second salon and private retreat when needed.
The Viking 68 C is not just a sportsmen’s yacht with its spacious design that is sure to win over any boater looking to fish and entertain out on the water. The Viking 68C’s walkaround island galley is open to the salon and dinette. It maximizes space while serving as an ideal area for socializing. The galley area also features modern conveniences include a Sub-zero refrigerator/freezer under the counter and pullout drawers for ample storage.
Other features built for fun and entertainment include an electrically operated salon door, an HD TV, a day head and engineered stone countertops. These features create a flow of luxury conveniences and amenities that owners come to expect in a comfortable, onboard living boat.
Multiple gathering areas are also available to provide relaxation for guests in no time. Opposite the galley, a large dinette is accommodated four adults with an additional bar stool seating at the island galley counter.
The midship master stateroom offers all anyone could need for to be comfortable while on an extended or multi-day cruise out on the water. Some features include a queen-sized walkaround bed with storage underneath and end tables. The area also provides a full-size private head with separate shower, two hanging lockers and a pair of credenzas.
This model is sure to provide the best in all aspects of boat design from performance and handling to fishing features as well as interior accommodations that offer overall comfort for everyone aboard. This boat is built for the real world, where you can have both sports fishing fun or a relaxing getaway—or both.
Viking is known to lead the pack when it comes to boat development and design, and the 68 Convertible is sure to keep Viking on top in the yachting industry.
