Viking Yacht 65 Convertible 2004

**Preliminary listing - More photos and details to come**

Presenting Kickback, an incredibly cared for 2004 Viking 65' Convertible. She has always been captain maintained with an open checkbook. Currently on her second owner, Kickback has been updated and modified to keep her standing tall. All services are up to date and she is truly turn key and ready for her next owner. Kickback is powered with optional and preferred Caterpillar C30 engines with only 2600 hrs, making her unique compared to any other Viking 65' Convertible on the market! 

Manufactured between 2000-2005, the Viking 65' Convertible is regarded as one of the best Sport Fishers that Viking ever produced with more than 80 being built. Whether fishing casually with friends and family or chasing Big Game fish in tournaments, the 65' convertible checks all the boxes. 

Stepping aboard she displays a 179 square foot cockpit that includes Mezzanine seating with easy engine room access, ample storage, plenty of refrigeration/freezer space. A beautiful fighting chair sits center for its next catch. There are glendenning cable master stations on both starboard and port sides of the cockpit. The teak decks and cover boards have been replaced and all the varnish on the boat is in excellent condition. A custom painted Whisper Gray ladder leads to the flybridge where you will find updated Garmin electronics, a new Makrolon enclosure, and upgraded refrigeration/freezer chest forward of the console.

Stepping inside the salon through a push button activated door, a large console on the starboard side houses a custom designed hi/low TV lift with custom cabinetry. Across is a redesigned sofa with extra seating and incredible storage. The galley is outfitted with concealed Sub-Zero appliances and optional raised panelling, solid wood cabinetry. Forward of the galley is a walk-in storage pantry and just across is U-shaped dinette with seating for six.

Below deck, the master suite with a walk around king size bed is amidship and the forward VIP stateroom has a centerline queen birth. A guest cabin on the starboard side has upper/lower berths, and the fourth stateroom, opposite of the companionway stackable washer and dryer, is abaft the master suite. It has a separate head and shower with direct engine room access, making this stateroom ideal for both guests or crew.
