1978 Viking 43 Aft Cabin yacht docked in harbor.

Description

Offered for sale is a well-maintained 1978 Viking 43 Aft Cabin Motor Yacht, powered by twin Caterpillar 3208 diesel engines rated at 375HP each. With 1,319 original hours, this vessel represents a great opportunity to own a proven cruising platform with reliable power.

Designed for comfort and extended cruising, this Viking features a spacious aft cabin layout with two staterooms and two heads, making it ideal for family trips or live-aboard use.

Highlights & Features:

  • Twin Caterpillar 3208 diesel engines (375HP) – 1,319 hours

  • Westerbeke diesel generator

  • Air conditioning for comfortable climate control

  • Spacious aft cabin layout with two staterooms / two heads

  • Windlass for easy anchoring

  • Updated Garmin GPS and radar for modern navigation

  • Newer exterior canvas

  • Updated interior carpeting

Why This Boat Stands Out:
The Viking 43 is known for its solid construction, smooth ride, and generous interior volume. This vessel is a true turnkey cruiser—well-suited for coastal cruising, extended stays aboard, or weekend getaways. Clean, well-equipped, and ready to go—this is an excellent opportunity to step into a proven motor yacht with classic styling and modern updates.
