Description

Introducing the incomparable 50 Viking Convertible called "REEL WISE". This is an impressive example of one of the most legendary Viking models ever built. She is owned and operated by a marine industry leader in yacht restoration and refurbishing. When you come see this yacht you will see the quality and detail taken to bring her to her current state with beautiful paint and powder coating top to bottom.

Powered by a pair of MAN D2840's, 820 hp each with unknown total hours and 433 hours on new gauges. 2025 saw Valve Adjustments, Complete Cooling Systems and Generator serviced, New Belts, Impellers, all Fluids and Coolant changed, Transmission Coolers replaced and a new Bow Thruster has been added. The boat has a newer Cummins Onan 13.5K generator with 1270 hours. The bridge has been modified from the original making it both practical and beautiful at the same time. The helm is equally modern with redundant systems that include dual Garmin VHF's, quad Garmin GPSmap chart plotter/sonar screens with updated maps, Garmin radar and Garmin auto pilot. Also new outriggers and full bridge Isin Glass have been installed.

Down below you step inside from the large, uncluttered cockpit through a marlin etched glass electric door where you will find a fully equipped galley with two Norcold refrigerators, Ceran Princess two burner stove, Convection microwave and lots of storage. Teak and Holly flooring highlights the well-appointed salon with all of the creature comforts and then, down to three comfortable cabins with two marine heads with separate showers including a Master walkaround queen with ensuite head. There are three Ocean Breeze A/C units on board and a combo washer and dryer unit.

Too much to add to write up but a more complete equipment list will be forthcoming.
