What To Expect - Exterior & Hull
As you can see from the profile renderings of the 64C, it features the sleek Viking lines that are unmistakable when seen among hundreds of other boats at offshore fishing tournaments. The sheer flows elegantly from the tip of the bow to the stern and the black-masked windshield perfectly matches the deckhouse.
As with all Vikings, over 90% of the 64C will be constructed in-house, giving the Viking team lots of design flexibility and excellent quality control. Viking's computer-operated five-axis profiling milling machine combined with the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software, help to achieve a running surface in the hull that provides greater performance, planing, handling, and efficiency. Only using the very best materials, the 64 Convertible's hull, is an engineered composite of fiberglass and coring that is resin-infused while inside of a vacuum-bag. The result is an incredibly strong hull, but also improved speed due to being lighter than a full fiberglass hull. Viking has also started using carbon fiber in their hull which is a new development in the production of their sportfishing boats.
What Will Anglers Love About The 64C?
The Viking team doesn't just build sportfishing yachts, they fish them competitively in tournaments all over the world. Between owner feedback and the thousands of hours spent fishing on board, Viking has perfected the cockpit space for serious offshore fishermen. The 64 Convertible will feature a 180-square foot cockpit that focuses on freedom of movement and usable spaces so that everyone is focused on the fish during an intense fight, and not getting in each other's way.

Additionally, the 64 Convertible has a dedicated space for a Seakeeper 26 under a center-line lazarette hatch that has optional power actuation. You can also ask for the optional in-deck live-well if the transom live-well isn't sufficient for your bait storing needs.
A Viking wouldn't be a Viking without the signature mezzanine seating area. Your guests can enjoy the action from the observation mezzanine. This comfortable seating area offers air-conditioning, shade from the flybridge over-hang, and plush seating. There is also a freezer/Coolbox starboard side under the seating area, as well as an area for cooler or tackle storage portside.
