The new Viking 76 Enclosed Bridge Convertible will premiere at the 14th Annual Viking VIP Miami Boat Show Preview at the Viking Yacht Service Center in Riviera Beach, Florida, January 29-30, 2010. This new model is a sister ship to the Viking 76 Convertible, which premiered at the Ft. Lauderdale Boat Show this fall. The Enclosed Bridge will feature a similar interior and cockpit, but provide the distinct luxury of a climate-controlled helm area and a posh sitting and entertaining area abaft the command center. A teak staircase provides access to the enclosed bridge from the salon in addition to exterior access from the mezzanine. Standard accommodations include five staterooms and four heads, plus a day head. Based on multiple sea trials of the open bridge 76 Convertible, the 76 EB will cruise effortlessly in the mid 30 knot range and top out at speeds approaching 40 knots with its twin MTU 2400 MHP engines.
