The 1998 Viking 47 Convertible is a fiberglass sportfish powered by twin MAN D2848LE403 diesel engines rated at 800 horsepower each. The boat reaches a maximum speed of 31 knots and cruises comfortably at 25 knots, with approximately 1,100 total engine hours on the twin diesels. A full 1,000-hour service was completed recently.
The yacht accommodates two cabins and two heads across a 47-foot length and nearly 16-foot beam. Below deck, the layout provides proper separation of sleeping quarters and facilities for extended cruising.
Between 2024 and 2025, the boat underwent comprehensive updates including a complete Garmin electronics suite, custom helm redesign with new seating and finishes, major mechanical service, and both interior and exterior upgrades. The engine room is clean with no noted deferred maintenance items. The work reflects a full-scale modernization of systems, instrumentation, and accommodations while preserving the hull and core structure of the original vessel.
