Broker Overview
The 2012 Viking 82 Convertible, 'Lady Di,' represents a compelling opportunity in the large sportfish market. This vessel stands out not just for its pedigree as a Viking, but for the significant investment made by its current owner. A complete interior and exterior refit, executed by Viking Yachts themselves, along with all-new electronics installed by Atlantic Marine Electronics, means this 82-footer presents far newer than its model year suggests. The twin MTU 16V2000 M94 engines, offering 5200 combined horsepower, provide a proven and reliable power package, delivering a comfortable 30-knot cruise and a top end of 37 knots. The inclusion of a SeaKeeper 35 is a substantial upgrade, significantly enhancing comfort at anchor and underway. With recent hull-side and top-side paint, the vessel's aesthetic condition is excellent. This is a turn-key offering for a buyer seeking a large, high-performance convertible that has been meticulously maintained and extensively upgraded, minimizing immediate capital outlay. The six-cabin, five-head layout provides ample accommodation for extended cruising or serious tournament fishing operations.

Expert Review
The Viking 82 Convertible is a formidable platform, renowned for its robust build quality, exceptional sea-keeping capabilities, and tournament-winning performance. This specific 2012 model, 'Lady Di,' benefits immensely from its recent, comprehensive refit and electronics upgrade, effectively resetting its condition and technological relevance. The MTU 16V2000 M94 engines are a preferred choice for their power and durability, but a thorough engine survey, including oil analysis and load testing, is critical. The SeaKeeper 35 is a significant value-add, offering a level of comfort not found on many vessels of this vintage. For a buyer seeking a large, fully updated sportfish without the new-build lead times and costs, this 82 Viking represents strong value. During survey, pay close attention to the functionality of all new electronics and ensure the refit work was documented comprehensively. Comparable alternatives would include late-model Hatteras or Spencer yachts of similar size, but few will offer this level of recent investment.
