2002 Viking 55 Convertible

This 2002 Viking 55 Convertible is a fiberglass sportfish built around serious offshore capability. Powered by twin MAN 1300 hp diesel engines, she delivers the range and reliability needed for extended blue-water fishing. The hull is proven, with the kind of construction pedigree Viking built its reputation on — a design that prioritizes strength and longevity over cutting corners.

The accommodations centre on a three-cabin, two-head layout with a generous saloon and fully equipped galley, making extended trips straightforward. Interior finishes are bright and well-appointed. Crew comfort and guest accommodation receive equal attention to the working spaces.

On deck and at the helm, the boat is mission-ready. A tuna tower, Rupp outriggers, and a Release Marine fighting chair handle the fishing side. A bow thruster and recent Garmin electronics (2022) provide precise control in tight situations. Additional systems include a watermaker, genset, ice machine, cockpit freezer, and washer/dryer — all equipment that supports self-sufficiency on longer passages. The hull was refreshed in 2020 with new paint in Fighting Lady Yellow. A flybridge enclosure was added in 2023.
