Wondering if there is anyone on here with a Viking motor yacht? Whatcha think?
Pros/ cons?

There is something about the lines of a Viking that old or new, sport fish or cruisers that are just nice.
Looks exactly like the one I have in escrow
Detroits?
Still in business and doing well from what I can tell, hopefully customer support is as well.

I just looked at a couple of listings. I am impressed with they layout and flow of the interior design. It appears to be a tremendous amount of capability for the money.
May your inspections go well!
Apparently almost the gold standard in sportfish/convertibles, both build and service. I'd guess the same about the motoryachts they make, too.
They built some of their own motoryachts (as pictured) and they also imported/sold some Princess models under the Viking name for a while. Latter look more European.

I was under the impression that Viking built the hulls and Princess finished them out and sold them under their name? Although you do see broker listings as Princess Viking to capitalize on the Viking name.

Did you happen to be getting yours from near Richmond? A dockmate just sold hers, and that thing is a beauty.
