2014 Viking Yachts 55C Open Bridge

Over the past 48 years, the Viking Yacht Company has introduced numerous ground breaking designs that have paved the waterfront with excellence in design and performance.

Our newest model, the 55 Convertible premieres this summer and will be a focal point for Viking during the upcoming boat shows. Like many new Vikings, the new 55 is a blue-water overachiever, which says a lot about any new model. But in this case, it means even more because of the big boat shoes it has been designed to fill and the fact that several 55s have already been spoken for in what is arguably a difficult economy.

In 1996, Viking introduced its first 55 Convertible at the Ft. Lauderdale Boat Show. This model broke new ground with style and out gunned the competition not only with its performance but with its movie star popularity that trampled the competition in sales. Over the next five years, Viking would build over 150 55 Convertibles. No other boat by any manufacturer in this size range would even come close.
