Take the wheel on JINKY JANE, a well-maintained and extensively updated 1998 Viking 47 Convertible that has undergone an updated refit along with significant recent systems, electronics, and cosmetic upgrades. The result is a classic Viking Sportfish that delivers the look, feel, and functionality of a much newer vessel.

With a comprehensive Garmin electronics refit, custom helm redesign, major mechanical service, and numerous quality upgrades completed between 2024–2025, this boat stands apart from typical late-1990s offerings.
