Viking 50 Convertible

1998 Viking 50 Convertible

Twin MAN V12 1200HP • Recent Survey • Extensive Service Records

This 1998 Viking 50 Convertible is a standout example of Viking’s legendary build quality, performance, and offshore pedigree. Powered by twin MAN D2842 V12 twin-turbo diesel engines, this vessel delivers impressive cruise speeds around 30 knots with the ability to push beyond 40 knots, making her equally capable as a tournament sportfisher or luxury cruising platform.

A recent survey (May 22, 2025) is available, along with a meticulous and well-documented service and detailing history, reflecting attentive ownership and consistent care. This Viking presents as a well-maintained, highly upgraded example of one of Viking’s most respected hulls.
