Viking 72 Enclosed Bridge 2025 “2025 Viking 72EB”

The Viking 72 is a blue water battlewagon in every way. Arguably the fastest convertible in the Viking Fleet through several engine packages from MTU, the 72C can reach the fishing grounds or an owner’s favorite destination with a cruise in the upper 30 knot range and at WOT into the mid-40s. The 209 square foot cockpit can accommodate an entire team of anglers and crew even as it is centered with the optional Release Marine Trillion Series fighting chair and houses an optional Seakeeper 36 under a watertight hatch just forward of the transom LiveWell. This cockpit can also function through the longest of tournaments with its expansive mezzanine seating area with optional air-conditioning that houses a large bait freezer compartment, an ice dump area for the optional Eskimo Ice Chipper, a drink box, and direct access to the engine room. Walking into the salon one will notice the rich interior surrounded by high end wood packages in either high gloss or satin, oriented in either a vertical or horizontal grain. To starboard is the convenient day head as well as the stairs to the enclosed bridge, and to port is an Ultraleather u-shaped sofa with optional teak tables from Release Marine. Forward and to port is the u-shaped Galley that can be figured openly for anglers to walk around the space or closed in allowing for more seating volume on the sofa. To starboard of the Galley is a raised dinette with an ample rod storage in the drawer underneath. Passing the walk-in pantry on the port side, and down the companionway, owners and guests will find ultimate comfort in the accommodations with 3 staterooms and 3 full and ensuite heads. Even the crew has phenomenal accommodations in the crew quarters located on the lowest level, with its own en-suite head and direct access to the engine room for ultimate convenience. The climate controlled enclosed flybridge the captain will have excellent visibility at the forward helm with 360 degrees of paneled glass. The dash helm can house numerous electronics packages from Viking’s subsidiary company AME. Aft of the enclosed flybridge is the mezzanine deck, which includes an optional teak helm pod from Release Marine with single lever controls, optional electronic packages from AME, as well as mezzanine seating to take in all the action.  The Viking 72 is the ultimate sportfish package!

 

Manufacturer Description
Better than custom

Viking’s legendary reputation for building peerless sportfishing yachts continues to wave its reign as we introduce the impeccable 72 Convertible. A family owned and operated company, Viking’s commitment to excellence began in 1964 when brothers, Bill and Bob Healey, opened the doors to a small factory on the Bass River near Atlantic City, New Jersey, with a singular goal amplified by grit and resolve to build a better boat every day. This unyielding mission embraced by our talented shipwrights for more than half a century and supported by our domestic and international dealer network has made Viking a world’s leader in the marine industry with an ultra-modern plant that designs and manufactures nearly 90 percent of what goes into every Viking yacht. This new 72 Convertible is another edition of this fabulous story offering ground breaking blue-water performance, style and engineering.

The standard Open Bridge accommodations layout includes four staterooms each with a private head, a J-shape sofa in the salon, a U-shape galley with custom granite countertops, crown molding on upper cabinetry, a large walk-in pantry forward, and a queen berth in the forward stateroom. An optional layout also offers crossover berths in the forward stateroom.

The standard Enclosed Bridge (EB) salon mirrors the Open Bridge plan with the addition of a circular staircase to the enclosed bridge helm, which serves as a second salon with an L-shape sofa, a cocktail table, refrigeration, and an entertainment center. An open galley, an L-shape sofa and crossover berths in the forward stateroom layout also are available. In addition, the 72 is offered in a Sky Bridge version, which provides the best of both worlds with an enclosed bridge and an open bridge above the EB. A day head is standard on all three 72 models.

Viking Yachts has become a global leader in the luxury sportfish and motor yacht industry.

Founded in the early 1960’s by Bob and Bill Healey, Viking built its vessels much like Carolina builders, assembling the boats on frames at intervals throughout the manufacturing facility. By 1972 they were already working on the first all-fiberglass model, the Viking 33C, and building their way into history as one of the finest yachting brands in the world. Viking quickly grew into a major U.S.-based yacht builder and leader in its industry in less than a decade. In the 80’s Viking acquired Gulfstar Yachts in Florida, whose designs were considered by many to be some of the best in the industry and incorporated some new innovations furthering their place in the industry. Re-investing with their own money in the early ’90s, the brand has been on top of the world ever since.

 

From a 38-foot sportfishing boat to 93-foot motor yachts with semi-custom fiberglass, advanced flybridges, tuna towers, and impressive outriggers, Viking yachts carry a tradition of excellence, innovative technology, and family history. Most Viking Yachts models are manufactured in-house to ensure maximum attention to detail and impeccable quality control in every sport yacht, open bridge convertible, enclosed bridge convertible, billfish, and the open series yacht that is produced.
