She is a major sales success with over 400 sold during her decade of production. She contributed mightily to Viking's growing reputation as a quality East Coast builder. Boasting an aggressive profile and rugged hull construction, her interior and cockpit is huge for a 40 footer. Notable, too, are her balsa cored hull sides, in fact she was one of the early production boats to pioneer this technology. Steel engine mounts were also employed which have now become a Viking trademark. Her interior is layed out in such a way that entertaining is a delight. You will walk into her salon from the sliding doors, down two steps to her dinette and galley. She has a wonderful head with shower and a V berth forward. Her fly bridge has seating along her starboard side and forward of her helm. Her helm has two seats for comfort. What an exciting opportunity and she is ready to go. She is a semi covered yacht fisher and has been owned for a long time by current seller. He just completed a complete refit and now must sell!  She is ready to go for you.
