80 Convertible
The Viking 72SB is a 72-foot sportfishing yacht that was launched by the prestigious New Jersey-based yacht-building firm Viking Yachts in 2022. Based on the same design that made the 72C a best-seller, this updated model features a skybridge, an enclosed pilothouse, a wealth of tournament-ready fishing amenities and a precision-engineered fiberglass hull for fine-tuned, high-octane fun, high-speed pursuits and record-breaking catches. A sleek and sporty form with teak brightwork, a flared bow entry, a tumblehome feel to transom and smooth aerodynamic lines lends a refined look to this vessel, while luxurious live-aboard interiors ensure a comfortable and sophisticated experience for the whole family.

Head up to the very highest level on this vessel to discover a breezy skybridge with a hard-top and a snug forward lounge where you can soak up the stunning views. To aft there is an elevated helm station with a pair of timber and leather helm chairs facing a sporty dashboard with everything needed for confident piloting. One level down there is an open aft-terrace with a stern-facing sofa, two tiers of rocket launchers and a docking station, while a weather-proof door leads into an upper-lounge with a plush L-shaped sofa, wrap-around glazing, a cocktail table, high-gloss hardwood surrounds, a drinks chiller and an enclosed bridge helm station. Expect goodies like Optimus power-steering, an Octoplex digital switching system, fishing electronics, a set of MFD touch-screen devices, hand-held VHF radio, a mounted compass and more.
Cast a rod and experience old-school angling out on the broad foredeck, or head into the teak-lined sports cockpit for fishing with a competitive edge. Out here there are flush rod-holders, a transom livewell, a transom lift-gate, in-sole fish boxes, rod lockers, an ice-box, an optional floor-plate for a fighting chair and a diamond-stitched mezzanine sofa lined in leather-effect upholstery where hardy fishermen can recharge their batteries. The main-deck salon benefits from panoramic side windows, lavish carpeting or a timber sole and elegant options like a sprawling J-shaped sofa, a dining sofa with a bespoke table, hand-crafted cabinets, crown molding accents, a U-shaped galley with sparkling granite countertops and a large pantry forward. Down on the lower-deck you can expect numerous en-suite cabins with an opulent finish for at least six and as many as 8 overnight guests. The master stateroom can be located to the bow or amidship and will feature a queen-sized bed, two full-height lockers and plenty of room to unwind, while other cabins can be fitted with double, twin or bunk beds for a peaceful night of rest.
There’s a range of heavy-duty propulsion packages available for this model, with a pair of 1550HP MAN V12 shaft-drives featured as standard. Upgrade to a twin-set of 2433HP Caterpillar C32B diesels or even a pair of 2635HP MTU 2000 V16 M96L motors for top speeds of around 44 knots and an economy cruise of approximately 23 knots. You can expand your fishing trips by days thanks to an efficient hull design and a fuel tank holding up to 2,594 gallons of juice.
