50' Viking Express Express Cruiser

Vessel Walkthrough

This 50' Viking Open has been updated and improved� over the past several years and will be a great fishing boat for it's next owner. In 2010 the boat had a complete paint job which additionally involved freshening of all aspects of the exterior.� Shining� ice blue hull with white rub rail and topsides, in 2011 the windshield frame was refinished white and all new rubber. With a sleek, low-profile design this boat has an attractive presence both at the� dock� and on the water. Perfect for the� owner� who wants a substantial boat you can run yourself� without being separated from� activities� on� deck or in the� cockpit.

Entering the cockpit you notice the coaming pads and a transom box before passing the� rocket launcher� to� go up three steps to the huge temperature-controlled bridge deck. To the portside aft is a large L-Shaped settee with triangular white fiberglass table in front. To the starboard side is another smaller bench seating area and just forward a prep center with rigging table, insulated drink box, and below a refrigerator with mini-freezer. Three white/chrome Stidd adjustable helm and companion chairs with footrests� face the forward windshield. Track-to-track enclosure fills hardtop to windshield top offering excellent vision in all directions from every seat. U-Zips open� on the sides and aft panel combined with two overhead hatches in the hardtop if fresh breeze is the choice over the reverse-cycle air conditioning units. The hardtop has integral lighting and custom overhead hanging rod storage beneath. The helm has all electronics low and facing the captain with a� fiberglass� helm pod topped by a� chrome bezelled� analog instrument cluster, single lever controls and an aluminum custom wheel.

Immediately to the starboard side� upon� entry is a convenient day head, followed going forward by the A/V cabinet. Above the galley is a newer flat panel TV which is attached to a� door that� opens with� a� storage� cabinet behind it.
