1991 Viking 45 Convertible

Detroit 6-71TIBs | Approx. 1,800 Hours | Major 2025–2026 Updates | New Garmin Electronics | Updated Interior | New Bridge Enclosure

This 1991 Viking 45 Convertible is a well-kept example of one of Viking’s proven offshore sportfishing platforms. Lake-kept for the majority of her life, she has approximately 1,800 hours on her Detroit Diesel 6-71TIB mechanical engines and has benefited from extensive mechanical, electronics, interior, and fishing upgrades completed in 2025 and 2026.

The boat has been maintained with an open-checkbook mindset, including major running-gear service, rebuilt turbos, new stainless risers, cleaned coolers and intercoolers, a completely updated interior, and an extensive Garmin electronics package.

When not in use, she is kept in dry storage, washed approximately every two weeks, and fully waxed every three months.

The galley has also been fitted with custom full-bed cushions, creating additional sleeping accommodations when needed.
