2021 Viking 44 Open

$1,896,333.00

The 2021 44 Viking Freedom shows and feels like a new boat. The next owner will thoroughly enjoy this “turn-key new boat feel” shaken down just enough to avoid a lengthy punch list. That same owner will come to experience what other 44 Viking Open owners have come to realize, nowhere else in the industry other than Vikings mid-sized 40 express can you find the extremely well-designed spacious layout below with 2 generous staterooms without having any upper and lower berths. Instead, they will find a functional side-by-side twin berth arrangement aft. Furthermore, the helm deck layout is second to none in this size class with three forward-facing upgraded Release Marine Helm chairs and very spacious comfortable lounge seating. The cockpit speaks for itself with its ample mezzanine seating and refrigeration. Her proud bow offers a solid dry much larger vessel feel when encountering annoying head seas. The 44 carries a stout 16’4” beam which is felt throughout the entire vessel. The 44 is a terrific all-around family favorite easy to manage and handle whether your flavor is cruising or fishing. This one is as nice as they come. The seller is ready for his next vessel.
