65' Viking 2000 Convertible - VIKING FOR SALE

The current asking figure is intended as a reference; all reasonable offers will be courteously considered, subject to terms.

Celebrated as one of the most accomplished large sportfishing designs of its era, the Viking 65 Convertible stands as a benchmark bluewater sportfish and convertible flybridge motor yacht, with over eighty hulls delivered before the 68 Convertible succeeded it in 2006. Purpose-built for tournament action yet refined for luxury cruising, it showcases a vast, competition-ready cockpit, an elegant four-stateroom, three-head layout, and the kind of high-performance diesel pedigree that can deliver cruising speeds in excess of 30 knots. Equal parts offshore fishing yacht and premium cruising platform, the 65C remains a coveted choice among serious anglers and yacht aficionados.

This 2000 Viking 65 Convertible presents a rare chance to revive a legendary Viking sportfisherman at a compelling entry point. Acquired by the current owner during the COVID period after a prior sinking, the vessel’s robust hull was repaired, returned to floating condition, and transported to Quincy, Massachusetts. It remained in the water there for approximately two years while initial refit steps were taken. During that phase, the electrical distribution panels were rebuilt, cleaned, and energized—important groundwork that sets a solid stage for the next owner’s restoration vision. Now land-stored, the boat is offered as an in-progress project, poised for completion by a buyer who values Viking’s renowned ride, range, and fishability.

Originally powered by twin MTU diesels, both engines are believed to be seized; one has been partially disassembled, with related components included. A full mechanical repower or comprehensive rebuild should be anticipated. For the discerning buyer, this represents an exceptional opportunity to secure a proven Viking convertible sportfish hull at a fraction of replacement cost. Her structure, flybridge and superstructure, tournament cockpit, and spacious interior arrangement remain an excellent foundation for a personalized refit—whether the end game is a hard-charging offshore fishing machine, a luxurious cruising yacht, or a versatile convertible fishing yacht blending both roles.

No trailer is included with this sale, and any trailer needs may be arranged separately. Nationwide and international logistics can be coordinated through trusted marine transport partners, with custom cradles and port delivery available to streamline shipment and export.
