The 46 SY sets a new benchmark for performance and luxury in this size range.
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.–Oct. 29, 2025–Valhalla Boatworks today announced the new 46 Sport Yacht at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, marking another milestone for this Viking company and expanding its presence in the luxury outboard market.
Agile, stylish and designed for fun, the 46 Sport Yacht is the ultimate getaway–equally at home on a weekend escape for a couple, a family adventure or a full day on the water with friends. Owners can choose between enclosed and open pilothouse configurations–the open maximizes outdoor space, while the enclosed offers climate-controlled comfort and full weather protection.
Formed in 2019 with the launch of the V-33, V-37 and V-41 center consoles, Valhalla Boatworks (VBW) now features seven center consoles and two sport yachts. The brand was founded by Viking to bring the same level of excellence to the outboard market that Viking owners have long known in its inboard-powered sportfishing yachts.
The 46 SY joins the lineup as the Valhalla 55 Sport Yacht makes its world premiere, underscoring the brand’s rapid growth–driven by Viking quality, performance and engineering.
The 46 Sport Yacht rides on the proven Michael Peters double-stepped running surface used throughout all Valhalla models, delivering the efficiency, speed and ride quality owners expect.
“The 46 Sport Yacht continues our goal of giving owners more choices and more ways to enjoy time on the water,” said Viking President and CEO Pat Healey. “From 28 to 90 feet, we now offer a Viking or Valhalla for every kind of boating lifestyle–from tournament fishing to family cruising.”
Design and Layout
The 46 carries the same strong, modern lines and refined profile as the 55 Sport Yacht. The enclosed version features powered side doors and an aft bulkhead with a summer kitchen that spans its width and includes a powered drop-down window for a clear, open connection to the pilothouse.
The open version removes the bulkhead and side doors entirely, merging the command deck and cockpit into one continuous space that highlights the boat’s connection to the outdoors. Both versions include a powered sunroof and raised seating aft of the pilothouse’s three helm chairs. The helm console is positioned to starboard and features a layout designed for operator comfort and control. It includes flush-mounted multifunction displays and clear sightlines through a one-piece windshield, giving the operator a wide, unobstructed view ahead.
“People naturally gather around the helm, so we designed the space to make that experience as comfortable and social as possible,” said Bill Ganner, Valhalla Boatworks Design Manager. “The goal was to create more room and seating so everyone aboard can be part of the conversation and the ride.”
Cockpit and Deck
The cockpit emphasizes open space and accessibility. Like the 55 Sport Yacht, the 46 SY features twin powered balcony doors that expand the deck area. An integrated ladder on the starboard side and a dive door to port provide convenient water access. A boarding platform outboard of the engines is accessed through twin transom gates
.The U-shaped seating in the cockpit–with armrests and a table–sets the tone for the yacht’s comfort and relaxation. It’s part of a molded fiberglass module that incorporates an aft storage locker with a hinged door. The area offers flexibility, with possible alternative arrangements such as a sun pad for lounging or back-to-back seating.
The portside deck leads to the bow, where wraparound seating and a table create a comfortable gathering space. Recessed into the forward console is a large sun pad with a skylight that brightens the cabin below. On the starboard side, the elevated side deck increases interior volume while still providing convenient access for line handling and docking.
Performance and Systems
The 46 SY will be offered with triple or quad Mercury V12 Verado outboards and carry 800 gallons of fuel. Additional tankage includes 90 gallons of fresh water, a 44-gallon holding tank and 49 gallons of diesel for the onboard generator–giving owners the range and autonomy for extended cruising.
While performance data will be finalized as testing begins, the 46 SY is expected to deliver speed and efficiency similar to its center console counterpart, the V-46. The double-stepped hull provides lift, stability and sharp handling across a wide range of conditions.
Below deck, systems are designed for straightforward maintenance and access–a hallmark of both Viking and Valhalla engineering. The machinery space under the cockpit sole is well organized, with access to the Seakeeper, sea chest and other systems.
Accommodations
The portside companionway stairs lead below to a bright, open interior finished with the craftsmanship and attention to detail. The layout blends warm materials, premium joinery and smart use of space to create a comfortable environment for extended stays aboard.
3To starboard, the galley provides storage and amenities for life on the water. Forward, the master stateroom includes a queen berth and a split head and shower arrangement that maximizes privacy and convenience. The head is accessible from the galley, allowing easy use while maintaining separation from the stateroom. Aft, twin berths provide comfortable accommodations for guests.
"This boat gives couples and families a true cruising experience in a 46-foot platform,” said Ganner. “It delivers the flexibility and performance owners want in a yacht of this size.”
With the introduction of the 46 Sport Yacht, Valhalla continues to broaden its model range and reinforce its reputation for quality and innovation. For owners seeking the ultimate blend of performance, comfort and adventure, the 46 Sport Yacht opens the door to endless possibilities on the water.
