Used Viking 42 Convertible
For Sale

DESCRIPTION

With the engines set closer to the stern, interior space was opened up to allow a roomy two stateroom/two head or optional three stateroom/two head arrangement. The exquisite Viking fit and finish of teak hardwood and veneers, and gracious amenities of the larger Viking Convertible Yachts is evident throughout the 42 Convertible. The standard two stateroom layout features a master stateroom in forepeak with walkaround queen-size berth and private access to starboard head, port side guest stateroom with upper and lower berths, two full heads with separate stall showers, starboard mid-level galley, and main deck salon with raised dinette that seats four. An optional layout for 3 staterooms/2 heads was offered, by carving space from the salon and galley, and moving galley to salon level, opposite the dinette.

The mid-level U-shaped galley, with easy care Amtico flooring, features Corian counters and a breakfast bar with two stools on salon level, for an extra dining area. Galley is well-appointed with undermounted sink, electric two-burner stove, undercounter large capacity refrigerator and freezer, microwave/convection oven, and plenty of storage cabinets and drawers.

In the three-stateroom layout, the galley has a free-standing island with storage instead of the bar with stools. The dinette settee on port side has removable cushions and storage underneath. Dinette table on single through-bolted pedestal has a high gloss finish. Salon features L-shaped lounge with storage underneath and hi-lo cocktail table to starboard, home theater system with 32” HD TV, Bose LS18 stereo with surround sound and subwoofer, cabinetry, window treatments and more for an elegant, comfortable climate-controlled area to relax.

Flybridge features a tournament style center console helm with excellent 360-degree visibility. Raised dash with clear acrylic face keeps electronics safe and dry. Compartments starboard and port of the Palm Beach-style helm house accessory switches and the pod system joystick control. Two Murray ladder back helm seats and lounges to port, starboard and forward provide ample seating for eight. Viking utilized the proven open bridge configuration of the larger Viking convertibles for the 42 Convertible, with a new innovation—a molded fiberglass windshield with distortion-free curved windows.

The 122 sq ft cockpit features an observation mezzanine with hinged seating for stowage below, space for optional freezer, and engine room access. Viking offered refrigeration for the chill box under step to salon. Cockpit is standard set up for offshore fishing and offered plenty of options and upgrades for an owner’s specific style of fishing or cruising. A Palm Beach Towers half tower or full tuna tower could be built and installed for turn-key delivery, along with rocket launchers, outriggers and more. Freezers, fish boxes, livewells, and other fishing amenities could be arranged to order as Viking builds 90% of components in-house.

The 42 Convertible was introduced at a price point under $1million during a recovering economy, yet without compromising the company’s renowned standards of excellence.

Whether fishing or cruising, the 42 Convertible is a comfortable boat for overnight trips.
