2001 Viking 61 Convertible

Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States

$1,099,000

The 61 Viking is widely regarded as one of the best hulls Viking ever built.  It is the boat that sent Viking to the absolute pinnacle of the production boat building hierarchy while other brands slowly faded away. Refit 61’s have a cult like following especially when they are refit with some of the more modern features.  The 2001 61 Viking "Duck Soup" has been updated and refit with everything a classic Viking enthusiast would want. Paint, SEA KEEPERS, Mezzanine, updated electronics and interior wood finish. Not to mention "Duck Soup" has the more desirable 4 stateroom layout and 2 generators.  She has been loved and maintained by an extremely knowledgeable and experienced sportfishing family. Do not miss the opportunity to own the finest refit classic 61 Viking available.
