This 2004 Viking Sport Fisherman 65' is a testament to meticulous care and comprehensive upgrades, making it a premier choice for those seeking luxury and performance on the water. Having undergone extensive yard service in February 2024, this vessel boasts a slew of recent enhancements, ensuring optimal functionality and aesthetics.
The thorough yard service included essential upgrades such as a new bottom job, meticulously dialed shafts, and the installation of brand-new propellers and rudders, ensuring peak performance and maneuverability. Additionally, new cutlass bearings were fitted, further enhancing the vessel's stability and efficiency on the open seas.
Attention to detail extends beneath the surface, with the MTU engine system receiving comprehensive servicing, encompassing crucial components such as heat exchangers, coolant pumps, and raw water pumps. This meticulous maintenance regimen guarantees reliability and longevity, instilling confidence in the vessel's performance.
In 2016, a total refit at American, Stuart Florida, transformed the exterior and interior of this yacht, elevating its aesthetic appeal and functionality. The hull was expertly painted black, accentuated by a sleek rub rail, exuding timeless elegance and sophistication. Notably, the addition of a teak toe rail and new electronics further enhance both form and function, reflecting modern design sensibilities.
While this vessel boasts a rich history of refinement and upgrades, it has also been subjected to the rigors of nature, notably enduring lightning strikes in 2007 and 2021. Despite these challenges, the vessel's resilience shines through, with thorough inspections and necessary replacements ensuring continued safety and performance.
The cockpit of this yacht is thoughtfully designed for both relaxation and functionality, featuring inviting mezzanine seating, teak decking, and a Bluewater fighting chair. Essential amenities such as an Eskimo ice chipper, water maker, and Garmin 7612 12-inch plotter enhance the onboard experience, while convenient engine room access underscores practicality and ease of maintenance.
Step into the salon, and you're greeted by a space that exudes warmth and sophistication. The galley is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, including a Kenyon 4-burner cooktop and Bosch washer/dryer, ensuring culinary excellence and convenience. The master stateroom offers unparalleled comfort and luxury, with a king berth, en suite head, and ample storage solutions. Meanwhile, the VIP stateroom and crew/third stateroom provide additional accommodations, ensuring all guests are treated to the utmost comfort and privacy.
Ascending to the bridge, you'll find a comprehensive array of navigation and entertainment equipment, including Furuno Black Box Radar, Garmin plotters, and an LG TV. The aft bridge features a wheel/control station, Side Power bow thruster controls, and additional Garmin plotter, while the tower is equipped with a Garmin 7610 10-inch plotter for enhanced visibility and control.
In summary, this 2004 Viking Sport Fisherman 65' is a masterpiece of design and engineering, meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded to deliver unparalleled performance and luxury on the open water. Whether you're seeking adventure or relaxation, this yacht is poised to exceed your expectations, offering an unforgettable experience at sea.
