The Viking 65 first rolled out of the yard in 2000 and has since become known as one of the finest looking, strongest performing sport fisherman ever. Its clean, crisp handling allows it to cut through the water and make shallow to medium turns without losing speed. From a style perspective, there are a few changes to previous years’ line ups. For one, there is more of a crown on the foredeck. Corners are more rounded, and frameless windows smoothly follow the contour of the cabin. A massive cockpit allows for more than one angler on deck without getting in each other’s way. The 65 is known for its minimalism both on deck and below, but don’t let that fool you. There is, simply put, a place for everything which is what keeps this cockpit and deck looking tidy and sharp. You still have all your fishing amenities.
