This 1997 Viking 43 Open delivers the legendary ride quality, build integrity, and offshore capability that have made Viking Yachts one of the most trusted names in sportfishing. Powered by twin Detroit Diesel 6V92 engines with approximately 3,100 hours, she is equally at home running to the canyons, cruising the coast, or spending weekends aboard.
The helm has been thoughtfully updated with Garmin electronics, Palm Beach Controls, a custom acrylic dash panel, JL Audio sound system, SeaDek flooring, and helm air conditioning — complemented by a tuna tower with upper station, dual Icom VHFs, autopilot, engine monitoring systems, and all-new Isinglass scheduled for installation in July 2026. On deck, teak covering boards and decking, new Rupp outriggers, mezzanine seating, fish boxes, livewell, freshwater and raw water washdowns, underwater lights, Starlink connectivity, and abundant rod storage make this cockpit ready for serious offshore fishing from day one.
Below deck, the salon features teak flooring, wraparound lounge seating, and a full galley, while the enclosed head with shower benefits from recently updated head systems and macerator. The forward master stateroom offers an island berth, generous storage, and an onboard entertainment system.
