Viking 72 Enclosed Bridge

With a 209 square foot cockpit and a second salon on the enclosed bridge, the Viking 72EB delivers the best of both worlds. Like the open version, the 72 EB delivers on Viking Yachts promise of groundbreaking blue-water performance, style, and engineering. The enclosed bridge magically transforms the 72 Convertible into a high-performance motor yacht with pomp and attitude. The climate-controlled helm station is moved forward for excellent sightlines. Engine instrumentation and electronics are framed within the leather-covered dash. The stainless-steel steering wheel is mounted horizontally for fingertip sporty response, and single lever electronic controls keep the power close at hand. An adjustable Stidd leather helm chair with a footrest is flanked by upholstered companion seats atop stowage compartments with sliding drawers for loose gear.

Abaft the helm, an L-shape lounge on a raised platform with a fixed cocktail table, an entertainment system with a stereo, CD/DVD player, an HD television, and a refrigerator create a comfortable second salon with amazing water views. A spiral staircase leads to the main salon below and a weatherproof and lockable fiberglass door to the aft deck where a pod-style helm with a steering wheel, full controls, and room for electronics provides a convenient docking and fishing station. LED spreader lights are built into the overhead, and a molded fiberglass seat with removable cushions offers additional stowage. Fitted with a special Palm Beach Towers tuna tower, and hydraulic outriggers, the 72 Enclosed Bridge becomes a ready and able sportfishing machine.

Viking yachts range from 38 feet to 90 feet, with enclosed bridge options including the smaller Viking 68 Enclosed Bridge and larger Viking 80 Enclosed Bridge model.
