    Does anyone have any experience with the 46 from the 80's. I am looking at a few one with 6-92s the other with 8-71s. I have heard that these are wet boats but good sea boats. I have never run a viking. I have seriously looked at Hatts 46-52 and I am more familiar with these boats. How does the viking 46 (again, mid 80's) compare?

    Thanks

    I am sure others will chime in but I run a 45 viking 1989 with 6-71Ti's
    I can answer any questions with relation to this boat, but honestly cannot tell the difference between this and a 46

    "wet boats" as in over the bow wet or hull core wet or? I ask as I had a Viking motoryacht of that vintage surveyed. The hull was very wet. That was some time ago and may have been unique to that one boat.
