The History Behind Viking Yachts
Brothers Bill and Bob Healey founded Viking Yachts in 1964 when they bought out Peterson Viking Builders and made it their own sportfishing and cruising yacht company. In 1991, they went from 1,500 employees down to 80 employees due to the nationwide recession and the introduction to federal luxury tax. This caused a huge fluctuation for many businesses such as engine manufactures, equipment procedures and other vendors that were heavily needed. The Healey Brothers began to invest their own money to keep their company, Viking Yachts, afloat during this turbulent time. Bob Healey was starting to organize a national campaign to fight against the tax issue that caused the job loss and stagnated boat sales. Bob also organized a vast amount of out-of-work boat builders that gathered on Capitol Hill for a rally, a true testament to the commitment that the Viking family has made in this industry. After two years, the luxury tax ended and Viking was overwhelmed with satisfaction as boat buyers started to return to the market. In addition to boat buyers returning to the market, Viking Yachts escalated to the top rocketing over their competition.
This established the Healey Brothers and their company, Viking Yachts, as the dominant builder in its class for sportfishing and cruising yachts. The Healey Brothers created an open-door policy at Viking Yachts. This welcomed all persons who were interested in the boat-building technology such as students, vendors, competitors, legislators and more! Bill Healey had a leadership in design and engineering which lead to Viking Yachts contributing to the development of and was one of the first to adopt the American Boat and Yacht Council’s (ABYC) Standards and Recommended Practices along with the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA) Recommendations. Every single model in the Viking Yachts line up is both ABYC and NMMA certified. Viking Yachts continued to steer their attention to always building a safe boat and received CIGNA Recreational Marines prestigious Award for excellence. Unlike the competition, Viking Yachts is the only company that manufactures roughly 90 percent of the items that go aboard each yacht they build. Everything is made on site except for some major components such as engines, air conditioning units and propellers.
Bill and Bob Healey are also founders of the Recreational Fishing Alliance (RFA). The RFA is a non-profit organization that was formed in 1996 to promote sustainable fisheries and a healthy marine environment.
Today, Viking Yachts enjoys a blessed status as the country’s leading builder of sportfishing convertible yachts and cruising yachts, with many industry observers describing Viking as the best yachts of their kind, in the world.
