2008 Viking 68 Convertible

$1,795,000.00

This 2008 Viking 68 Convertible UNPLUGGED is an exceptional example of Vikings popular first generation 68. Now on her second owner, she has a well-documented history of care, maintenance, and easy usage. Her décor is fresh, and the C32 Cat engines have 1,175 hours since comprehensive Caterpillar factory platinum warranty overhauls. Her 1000-hour maintenance included intercooler replacement and she just came out of a yard period for bottom job, props and polish. She was built with the four-stateroom layout featuring crew quarters, VIP crossover layout in the forward stateroom, optional extra fuel (for a total of 2375 gallons), and twin 27.5 kw generators. New teak decks in 2016, dual water makers, etc.

Her current owner looked for over two years for an exceptional example of a Cat powered Viking 68. Reluctantly he is getting out of boating.
