    What size Viking is "Liquidity"? It must be either a 61' 64' or 65'... Pretty pictures. You guys certainly chose an exotic locale. The Red Sea doesn't naturally come to mind when I think of destinations to take a Viking.

    Sorry, I must have missed the post.........Liquidity is a 61'.

    There is some great fishing in the Red Sea.

    Congrats on the yacht, Tarek! Now I want to go to Egypt and go cruising!

    How's the Scud? :D

    Thanks :).............great to see you around here, haven't seen you on Fchat for some time.

    You're most welcome anytime in Egypt.........just tell me when and leave the rest to me, we'll have a great time. Btw., this also applies to anyone here on YachtForums who wishes to visit Egypt ;).

    The Scud is great........best car I've ever owned.

    Stay in touch and it will definitely be a pleasure to welcome you in Egypt.

    Best regards,

    TK

    Looks like there are owners who really enjoy their hard earned toys. Great pictures and keep the fun going.

    Hi Mr.T,

    Nazly looks great 'nude' but if you've got the kids and family with you it will sting a bit the next day.

    A small 1/4 bimini that can fold in front of the windshield may well cut down on the rays over the forward seats, yes I know it will mostly shade you but then everyone-else will get a bit more interested in what you do, which is nice.

    Been very busy lately. Plus I moved over to the dark side (Lambos). :rolleyes:

    I'll definitely let you know when I go to Egypt. Hopefully when that happens I'll have an Azimut so we can cruise together... and we'll race! :p

    Hi Tarek,

    First time I've seen this post. Incredible pics!!! You guys are definitely lucky to have such beautiful waters. And those lobsters.... You should've cooked them on board immediately :)

    I wish i could take the Azimut to the Red Sea. I'd definitely be putting on many many more hours of use on it than here in the Gulf.

    Enjoy your boat in the best of health buddy!

    Tarek thanks for sharing your pictures, that looks like so much fun! If anyone was on the fence about buying a boat before, they are not now! :)

    I'm assuming you've had a ride on the Viking...how does the ride compare to "Nazly"? :p

    A pleasure :).

    The Viking is a great boat, it's a tank........and it's loud, but it will handle any condition.

    The Squadron 78 does have a soft top bimini, but I removed it. IMO it ruined the sleek lines of the boat, but ofcourse you are right.........a bimini is extremely practical.

    I believe TK no longer has the 78. Downsized I think.

    I sold the Squadron 78 and now have the Targa 64. I always have two deckhands to help out on the boat, but skipper the boats myself.

    Hi TK

    I guessed I missed the discussion when you sold the 78.... what was the reason for that? I just checked out the 64... pretty slick looking.

    Hi Kevin,

    Sold the S78 last year and bought the Targa 64 instead. I preferred a sport cruiser over the flybridge and the T64 is Fairline's largest sport cruiser. I liked the sport look. It's specc'ed with the large MAN1100 engines and the boat is fast.

    Here's a picture of the Targa 64...........
