The Viking 52 Convertible, launched in 2014, was updated from its preceding model, that was built between 2002-2008, with a new interior design. From cockpit steps, the entrance to the spacious salon/galley/dinette area is to port. The salon now features the L-shaped sectional lounge with cocktail table to starboard aft with the L-shaped galley starboard forward. The galley features an island with 2 bar stools and is directly across from the dinette that is now forward portside. A large flatscreen TV mounted on bulkhead over dinette is viewable from all seating areas. Cabinetry with Bose home theater surround sound entertainment system, bottle storage, and main electrical panel is on aft port side opposite the sectional lounge which converts to a sofa bed. The opulent designer interior with gleaming teak joinery, accents, and furniture, fluted valances, window treatments, headliner accents, custom furnishings and décor, pleasing earth-tone palette, polished hard-surface counters, mood lighting, designer materials and more, create an ambiance of comfortable luxury for relaxing, entertaining, and travel to distant fishing grounds.

The standard 3-stateroom, 2-head accommodations layout has changed as well—companionway is on portside between the dinette and galley. The laundry center with washer and dryer is at foot of steps, to port. The amidships master stateroom with ensuite head and shower is now on starboard side. The guest stateroom in forepeak features crossover bunks with a double lower bunk and single upper bunk. Viking offers an optional centerline queen berth arrangement. The third stateroom with over/under bunks is portside and the guest/day head is in between. Both guest staterooms have private access to the guest head with separate shower stall. All three staterooms are nicely appointed and comfortable with the meticulous craftsmanship and elegant style Viking is known for, and all three staterooms feature maple-lined storage.
The galley has a full array of appliances hidden in handle-free gleaming teak cabinets for a modern, uncluttered look. Deep drawer refrigerator and freezer units are under countertop. The 3-burner cooktop is recessed in counter with matching Corian cover. A microwave/convection oven and stainless steel undermounted sink with garbage disposal are also standard, along with easy-care Amtico flooring.
As with all Viking convertible sportfish yachts, the 52 Convertible is designed to be highly fishable. The open flybridge features Viking’s exclusive center console helm station with two bucket seats in front of console and flanking lounges—portside lounge has an aft-facing jumpseat. The 52 Convertible can be customized with any of Viking’s options, such as a custom tuna tower by Palm Beach Towers, riggers, rocket launcher arrays, electric teaser reels, custom navigation, communications, and entertainment electronics packages from Atlantic Marine Electronics, and other equipment and accessories, for turnkey delivery.
The 142 sq ft cockpit with Viking’s exclusive observation mezzanine features cushioned seat sections that lift for engine room access and bait freezer compartment. Salon entry step has an insulated drink box that can be refrigerated as an option. On portside is a molded fiberglass cabinet with tackle drawers under the athwartship aluminum ladder to bridge aft deck. Bridge overhang shades the mezzanine below. Large in-sole insulated fishbox and an in-sole 40-gallon well that can be plumbed as a livewell or used for ice storage (fed from optional Eskimo ice maker in engine room), are standard. An in-sole backing plate is ready to support an optional fighting chair—the mezzanine is curved to allow more space around back of fighting chair. Standard cockpit sole is non-slip fiberglass. Teak sole and trim is optional. The gated transom door is on portside. Transom can have a built-in fishbox or livewell. Rupp rod holders are flush mounted in gunwales. Lockers under gunwales hide shore power and water connections, Glendinning Cablemaster lines, cable TV and phone connections and provide storage for accessory equipment. Viking makes it easy for owners to arrange and outfit the cockpit to their personal fishing style.
Built tough to take on challenging sea conditions, the 52 Convertible hull changes are based on “sistership” 62 EB Convertible. Viking’s build method of resin-infused hull, in a matrix of composite materials—foam and end grain balsa coring, Kevlar®, Aramid and E-glass knitted fiberglass laminates, is engineered to reduce weight while adding strength. Carbon fiber is used in the one-piece deckhouse assembly in its composite structure. Construction and materials are engineered to enhance strength to weight ratio for greater performance and efficiencies. Hull is designed with sharp forward entry to cut through head seas and a convex hull shape for greater buoyancy. Molded bottom strakes enhance lift. The modified-V hull transitions to 11.8 degrees deadrise at transom for greater speed and throttle response—as with all current Viking convertibles, as Viking strives to improve with each new build. Viking’s vertical integration and state-of-the-art production methods have led to capabilities close to that of custom boat builders, but with shorter delivery times.
The Viking 52 Convertible length overall (LOA) is 53’2” with a beam of 17’6” and draft of 4’11”. Fuel capacity is 1,202 gallons, water capacity is 186 gallons, and holding tank is 57 gallons. Gross weight with standard fuel load is 67,680 lbs.
Power Options for the 52C are twin MAN V8 1000CRM 1000 hp (Base) and twin MAN V12 1400CRM 1400 hp (Option).
