Expert Review
The Viking 62 Convertible is a highly regarded platform in the sportfish market, known for its excellent build quality and offshore capabilities. The resin-infused hull, incorporating Kevlar and carbon fiber, is a testament to Viking's commitment to structural integrity and performance. Expect a dry ride and predictable handling in a variety of sea conditions. The MTU 2000 V12 M96L engines are a premium power choice, offering strong performance and reliability, though their maintenance schedule should be thoroughly reviewed. This particular vessel's recent $1M+ refit, including a new Seakeeper and updated electronics, significantly enhances its appeal and value, addressing typical upgrade cycles.

This vessel presents as a strong value given its condition and recent investments.
