The 55 Viking Convertible is a proven sportfisher design built on a fiberglass hull 55.8 feet long with a 17.3-foot beam. Twin MAN 1200 horsepower diesel engines power the boat, each with approximately 6,000 hours logged. The engines sit in a spacious, accessible engine room. Dual Onen Marine gensets provide auxiliary power, paired with a 1579-gallon fuel capacity. Navigation and fish-finding electronics include dual Furuno radars, Garmin plotter, Furuno color sounder, Simrad autopilot and VHF direction finder, and multiple communication systems. A Sleipner bow thruster aids maneuverability, while four marine air-conditioning units maintain climate control throughout the boat.
Topside, the flybridge offers a comfortable lounging area with panoramic views. The main deck features a Pompanette fighting chair, rod holders along the gunwales and outrigger positions, rigging station, electric grill, bait freezer, davit crane, and hatch access to the engine room. A bow-mounted electric windlass and cradle for a skiff complete the working areas.
