There are only a few sportfish with IPS drives. Most don't like them on these boats due to maintenance issues, and the fact that when we are out...
I do agree fishing can be tough on that rig. Outboards don't create as clean of a wake as diesels. Even with bow thruster, don't think it will...
Let me know what you end up with. I have a 62' Viking right now, but eventually will get out of offshore fishing, and will be looking for a...
Great boats!
There is one dealers use. There is nothing really availlable for general public. Can only look at asking prices.
Spare mach 5 pump. Good condition. $800 shipped to lower 48. [IMG] [IMG]
Take off this past weekend, works great. $800 shipped to lower 48. [IMG] [IMG]
So, Marine air has been bought by dometic. This is a timely thread as I ordered a 30BTU split system through viking for replacement of my salon...
I will be using my Viking to cruise in the off season, fish in season. For cruising, I need the speed my boat offers. I am still working hard,...
Nope, they have a 100 ton and 50. Call Craig in service department. He is the man. Full service for vessels up to 120’ 100- and 50-ton...
Great photos! I am having this done now on my 62 Viking with 12V2000M96L's. Turns out my pressure on one engine was running just high enough...
OP, I have had many sportfishers, from custom (winter, blackwell, gillikin) to production (36' hatt, 2008 60 GT hatt, now a 2017 62' viking)....
Bluewater yachts, hampton Va
I am surveying some MTU's down there in 2 weeks, using FDDA. They can do the engine survey/work.
You are correct when it comes to sportfishers. There was a trend for awhile to try them, there are for sure some benefits. The biggest issue...
I agree after coming out of my GT. There are no 59/65's available. The Fish Tank was on the market for a bit then pulled, they wanted 5+MM
Everything you said is accurate. I had a ricky gillikin, then a 55' blackwell, then a 62' Winter hull #1. They were great running boats, and...
Your father and mine met a long time ago, as my father bought 35' express hull #1 back in '94. He bought it from Doc Austin at HMY. I remember...
That is the decision I am making now. I just got out of a 60 Hatteras GT, and am looking at a newer 60's viking. There values are really...
I am making an offer on a boat now. I have locked in rates in the 3.5%. Don't think they are getting lower, most likely higher. Who knows on...
