A handsome yacht with striking lines, the Viking V65 was state-of-the-art in both luxury and styling when she was introduced in 2000. The hardtop gives the V65 the best of both worlds, the security of a weather-protected helm and - with the sunroof retracted - the enjoyment of an open express design. Built on a relatively narrow deep-V hull with propeller tunnels, the three-stateroom interior is highlighted by lacquered cherry woodwork and an elegant designer decor. The master stateroom is amidships, and all three heads are fitted with stall showers. On deck, the cockpit contains a complete wet bar, an electric grill and plenty of seating. At the stern, beneath huge sun pads, are a pair of storage garages, one for a small tender and the other for a PWC. Additional features include teak cockpit sole, a foredeck sun pad, bow thruster and wide side decks. Fit and finish is second to none. An outstanding performer for a yacht this size, 1,300 HP MANs cruise the Viking V65 Express at a fast 32 knots and reach a top speed of 37-38 knots.
