If a fun day fishing on the water is your goal, look no further than the Viking Billfish model range. Designed and built for an owner/operator, the Billfish series provides many of the same amenities and equipment as the larger Viking models, but at a smaller size.
From 44 to 54 feet, the Viking Open Series is easily managed by the owner, providing a fun, safe, and enjoyable day on the water. With performance and handling similar to a center-console, but with sportfish-like amenities, it’s hard to be the open sportfish design.
For the sportfish enthusiast that prefers a climate-controlled upper helm, the Viking Enclosed Bridge series offers a luxuriously comfortable solution. Whether boating in cold weather or looking for an interior pilothouse area for entertaining with a view.

Founded by brothers Bob and Bill Healey in 1964, Viking has since seized – and maintained – a reputation for excellence. It all began when the Healeys took over a small local builder of fishing boats, Peterson-Viking Builders. The brothers kept the first half of the name, and established Viking as a self-sufficient manufacturer: apart from engines, transmissions, air conditioning units, and electronics, Viking produces everything in-house.
Since then, Viking has become a byword for exceptional quality, performance, and luxury. Not content to rest on its laurels, Viking has dedicated the last twenty years to innovations in design and efficiency, breaking records along the way. In 2014, the brand celebrated its birthday by debuting the 92C, the world’s biggest resin-infused sportfisher convertible at the time. Just a few years later, Viking transformed the marine industry when it announced the creation of Valhalla Boatworks, a subsidiary that marked its successful foray into the center-console market.
Viking’s dedication to quality and craftsmanship has earned it a litany of critical and commercial accolades, sweeping up accolades from magazines and trade shows since 1996, when the Viking 60 Cockpit Sportsyacht won Boating Magazine’s ‘Boat of the Year’ award. More importantly, the brand has made a significant impression on owners, delivering over 5,000 vessels to buyers throughout the last half century.

From concept to execution, 90% of Viking models are produced at the firm’s own New Jersey facility, where local craftsmen ensure the quality, performance, and beauty of each boat. With the exception of engines and electronics, nearly everything you see on a Viking yacht has been built in-house.
