Experienced Viking owners understand that evaluating a yacht of this generation involves more than reviewing engine hours or electronics.

Two of the largest cosmetic expenses commonly encountered aboard convertibles from this era are restoring interior high-gloss wood finishes that have developed the familiar 'milky' appearance and repainting yachts after extensive gelcoat crazing develops over time.

BIG BLUE stands apart.

Her original exterior gelcoat continues to present beautifully without the widespread crazing frequently seen on comparable vessels, preserving the timeless Viking profile exactly as it was intended.

Inside, the rich high-gloss joinery remains clear, deep, and vibrant without the cloudy appearance that often requires extensive refinishing.

Her teak decks are equally impressive, remaining in excellent condition with years of useful life still ahead.

For the next owner, these cosmetic advantages represent not only pride of ownership but also the potential to avoid some of the most expensive restoration projects associated with yachts of this vintage.

Stepping aboard BIG BLUE, it is immediately apparent that this yacht was designed by fishermen who understood exactly how a serious offshore cockpit should function.

The spacious teak cockpit provides abundant working room while maintaining the warmth and elegance expected aboard a luxury Viking Convertible. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from convenient access to machinery spaces to the practical layout that allows anglers, crew, and guests to move comfortably whether tournament fishing or entertaining at the dock.

The beautiful teak remains in excellent condition, complementing the yacht's exceptional original gelcoat and reinforcing the overall pride of ownership evident throughout.

A premium sportfishing yacht deserves an equally premium tower, and BIG BLUE is equipped with one of the industry's most respected names.

Her Palm Beach Towers package provides exceptional visibility while searching for bait, weed lines, tailing sails, or breaking tuna, allowing captain and crew to maximize every opportunity offshore.

The custom blacked-out buggy top and control box give the yacht an aggressive, modern appearance while housing full steering controls, engine controls, start-stop functions, redundant electronics, and a fully upholstered belly band.

Additional equipment includes a twelve-step gap tower, Rupp triple-spreader outriggers, center rigger, radar pod, molded lighting, aft-facing camera, bridge rail rod holders, flag staffs, and recessed lighting, creating a tournament-ready platform without compromising aesthetics.

The flybridge offers outstanding visibility and an ergonomically designed command center that inspires confidence whether running across the Gulf Stream or backing down on a billfish.

Beautiful teak helm pod and companion chairs immediately establish a premium feel, while single-lever engine controls, integrated bow-thruster controls, recessed electronics boxes, and Garmin navigation systems place every essential control within easy reach.

Forward seating, generous storage, a large bridge freezer, dedicated drink box, and full polycarbonate enclosure ensure comfort for family and guests during long passages while remaining completely functional for tournament fishing.

Passing through the electric salon door, BIG BLUE reveals exactly why Viking interiors continue to be admired throughout the industry.

Rich high-gloss joinery, beautiful hardwood flooring, plush carpeting, abundant natural light, and carefully crafted cabinetry create an inviting atmosphere equally suited for entertaining or relaxing after a day offshore.

A generous U-shaped sofa with integrated storage surrounds the custom hi-lo table, while a concealed pop-up television preserves the open feel of the room until entertainment is desired.

An ice maker, bottle storage, overhead lighting, and thoughtfully located electrical panel further demonstrate Viking's commitment to blending luxury with functionality.

Most importantly, the beautiful woodwork throughout the salon remains exceptionally clear and vibrant without the costly 'milky' appearance that often affects yachts of this era.

The galley has been designed for owners who truly use their yacht.

Whether preparing meals during a tournament week or provisioning for an extended Bahamas cruise, the abundant storage, custom countertops, hardwood flooring, Kenyon four-burner cooktop, convection microwave, trash compactor, and overhead ventilation provide everything necessary for comfortable life aboard.

Two Sub-Zero freezers and four Sub-Zero refrigerator drawers offer exceptional cold-storage capacity rarely found aboard yachts of this size, making extended cruising both practical and enjoyable.

BIG BLUE's four-stateroom, three-head layout remains one of the Viking 64's greatest strengths.

The full-beam master suite features a queen berth with storage below, custom headboard, matching end tables, his-and-hers cedar-lined hanging lockers, television, overhead hatch, and a beautifully appointed private ensuite head.

The forward guest stateroom offers the preferred crisscross bunks with private ensuite facilities, LG Blu-ray entertainment, generous storage, and hanging locker.

Additional guest accommodations include both over-under and side-by-side bunk arrangements, providing exceptional flexibility for children, guests, crew, or tournament teams.

The companionway incorporates additional storage, washer and dryer, upholstered wall panels, bilge access, and easy access to guest accommodations, creating a practical layout for extended cruising.

Viking's reputation for engineering excellence continues below deck.

The beautifully finished engine room features varnished teak-and-holly soles and provides outstanding accessibility around the twin Caterpillar C32 ACERT engines.

Twin Onan generators, Delta-T ventilation, Cruisair air-conditioning equipment, automatic fire-suppression system, reconditioned risers, oil-transfer system, crash pumps, steering pump, water heater, electrical sub-panel, batteries, and organized tool storage all reflect a yacht designed with long-term serviceability in mind.

BIG BLUE represents the kind of opportunity many experienced buyers are seeking in today's market.

As the cost of new construction and late-model yachts continues to rise, many owners are rediscovering the exceptional value found in proven pedigree brands like Viking. Their legendary hull designs, robust engineering, and timeless layouts provide an outstanding foundation that can be enjoyed today while offering the flexibility to incorporate modern technologies such as updated electronics, Seakeeper stabilization, Omni sonar, Starlink connectivity, and other contemporary systems over time. This can literally save millions and give owners the freedom to personalize and customize classic pedigree models.

Combined with knowledgeable ownership, full-time professional care, outstanding original gelcoat, beautiful interior joinery, and healthy teak decks, BIG BLUE offers an exceptional opportunity to own one of Viking's most respected convertibles while preserving the freedom to personalize her for years to come.

Whether your plans include tournament fishing, extended cruising, or simply owning a proven offshore platform from one of the industry's premier builders, BIG BLUE is ready for her next adventure.
