I would like to still cruise at least 25 knots, and still do some offshore fishing, with is why I like the new Riviera models. Moritimo has some...
In the states, it seems sportfish yachts hold their value longer, regardless of economic conditions. We have seen almost all the possible...
Hey all, I have enjoyed being on this site for quite a while. There tends to be a lot of bickering, but in all, lots of good info. In an...
I would survey the engines and hull for sure. Will definitely be a good learning boat for you. I would be concerned with the resale. You won't...
Last year things were proper. Will examine the yard bill in a couple weeks. It's a very detailed invoice, so if something appears incorrect, I...
I don't think they have an either/or model.
Thanks for the reply, you brought up some points I wouldn't have thought about. It appears they are using this design as a way to save room...
Living in Va Beach, I use Bluewater in Hampton (safe harbor owns now) for my yard work. They are painting my hull right now. They service many...
All very true. I am an enigma as an owner/operator of my 62' Viking. I grew up fishing, mated for my dad, and love running the boat while...

Great boats!! As mentioned, previous upkeep/service is key. Are all records attainable. Each engine option available on the 61 can work well....
Depends how fast you want to go, lol. My boat weighs 94k pounds and I have twin 1950hp MTU's. Perfect for me, but burns a lot of fuel. Speed...
There are only a few sportfish with IPS drives. Most don't like them on these boats due to maintenance issues, and the fact that when we are out...
I do agree fishing can be tough on that rig. Outboards don't create as clean of a wake as diesels. Even with bow thruster, don't think it will...
Let me know what you end up with. I have a 62' Viking right now, but eventually will get out of offshore fishing, and will be looking for a...
Great boats!
There is one dealers use. There is nothing really availlable for general public. Can only look at asking prices.
