The 1990 Viking 53 Convertible is a purpose-built offshore convertible powered by twin 1,000 HP MAN diesel engines. The boat features a distinctive Fighting Lady Yellow hull and combines serious fishing capability with comfortable cruising accommodations across its 53-foot length and 16.58-foot beam.
The interior arranges three staterooms and two heads in a galley-up layout with an amidships master cabin. The salon is open and well-proportioned for entertaining, and the boat includes washer and dryer for extended time away from the dock. The flybridge offers expansive seating and visibility, while the fishing cockpit is fully equipped with a bait station, tuna door, and tournament-grade working space.
Navigation and engine management are well-supported with Garmin GPS, chart, and depth systems; Furuno open-array radar; and Simrad autopilot. The engine room is thoughtfully laid out for straightforward access and routine maintenance. The fiberglass hull and proven Viking design from this era deliver the reliability and offshore performance expected of the brand.
