VIKING 5.5
5.5M SPORTS FISHERMAN MKI I

  'Viking' is an appropriate name for this blue water warrior. Delivering rough water performance out of all proportion to the hull size, this turn of the century Viking is far and away the best 5.5m offshore craft available today.
  The Viking has now been upgraded from stem to stern in keeping with the lines and features proven so popular in the classic Seafarer Victory. It is a more spacious boat, a better performing boat, and internal layout and features represent the state of the art in modern offshore fishing boat design.
The bow layout of the Viking is standard Seafarer fitup, with a large self- draining rope locker and quality stainless steel deck hardware. A short bow sprit keeps ground tackle clear of the glass work, and the entire area is easily  and comfortably accessed through the cabin-front hatch.
Those who anchor offshore in deep and sometimes rough water will appreciate cabin access to the foredeck and other features designed to make a sometimes difficult job a lot easier. The cabin height has been increased and there are two steps forward to get the operator within comfortable reach of the deck hatch and hardware through what is now a very large access hatch. The top step contains a large locker which can be used for general storage, or it can be utilised to store a large quantity of rope for deep water anchoring. 'Re attention to detail for which Seafarer is well known is evident in the use of aluminium stair tread fitted to these steps to ensure safe secure footing.
Side shelves with padded facings running the length of the cabin sides act as back rests when the cabin seats are used, and these shelves also provide a lot of valuable and quickly accessible storage space. It is a popular option these days to have radios flush mounted in the side shelf facings where they are completely protected from damaging salt water spray.
Further storage is available under the bunks which are fitted with quality, comfortable cushions, and for serious fishing days the foot well between bunks is an ideal place to locate fish boxes or extra gear not required in the cockpit.
71e entire dash console is new, with all of the features of the larger Seafarer models now included. The helm console has a dedicated area for gauges, set well clear of the wheel with all of the important instrument located immediately below the forward line of sight. Above this a flush mounted compass is located exactly where a compass should be mounted.
Between the wheel and the gauge panel a large area has been left clear to flush or bracket mount either separate GPS and sounder cabinets side by side, or large GPS/mapping/sounder combination sets. There is plenty of room for the largest instruments in this space, which puts these important electronics within comfortable reach             the operator.
The throttle control is flush mounted so there is no intrusion into the helm space, and the wheel is a heavy duty model with non feedback steering.
Standard seating is comfortable, side hugging bucket seats. The standard Viking cockpit is presented as a low maintenance, hard working area for serious fishermen, with big side pockets, under floor wet storage space, stainless steel rod holders, big quarter deck wells, recessed hand rails and much more.
