Jus Reduced $20,000. Owner Ready To Sell. Offers Encouraged!

For full specs and pictures go to www.hoyachtsales.com "Morgan Marie" is a beautifully kept example of the superb Viking 44 Motor Yacht. In fact, she is likely the finest example of this model available anywhere. Power is provided by a pair of Johnson & Tower 6-71 TIB 485hp diesel engines, which will cruise the boat comfortable at 20 knot. AC power comes from an Onan 8kw generator in a sound shield. One of the hallmarks of a Viking is the quality and attention to detail given the interior woodwork. This vessel is one of approximately 20 of the last generation of the 44 MY's and features an upgraded teak interior that is in beautiful condition. The interior layout features a very comfortable salon with galley and dinette down. Foward is a guest stateroom with an island double berth, head and stall shower. A master stateroom is aft with an island marine queen and private en-suite head. (Also note that the vessel is equiped with a full size refrigerator/freezer and a Kenmore stackable washer & dryer.) Topsides, there is a covered aft deck with wet bar; a comfortable bridge deck with seating for 8; and an 11' Avon RIB with 30hp Yamaha O/B and Marquip electric davit mounted on the bow. From the bridge to the bilge, the condition of this boat is outstanding. 

The current owner purchased the vessel in 1998 from the original owner and has lovingly kept and maintained the boat for the last 13 years. Mechanically, cosmetically and structurally, this boat is as nice as you will find anywhere. If you are in the market for a pristine Viking 44 MY, "Morgan Marie" is truly a must-see. Please feel free to contact directly with any questions or to setup a showing.

Manufacturer Model History

The Viking Yacht Company is a family owned business, established in 1964 in New Jersey. The Healey family has overseen the growth of the company from a small regional builder, making wooden fishing boats, to one of the premier powerboat manufacturers in the world, building the finest high-tech fiberglass fishing and cruising yachts available anywhere at any price. The company has built it's reputation on superior quality, enduring designs, extraordinary sea-keeping ability and outstanding customer service. The 44 Motor Yacht was first introduced in 1982 as a replacement for the 43 Motor Yacht. Production for the 44 MY ran from 1982 until 1990, when the 10% luxury tax badly crippled the industry and ultimately caused the demise of the boat. Originally, the model was built at the New Jersey facility, but with Viking's purchase of Gulfstar in 1987, production of the 44 MY was eventually moved to the west coast of Florida, to the newly acquired facility. It was during this period that Viking took advantage of the expert woodworkers at the Florida plant and updated the boat's interior giving the vessel a more modern and sophisticated look. "Morgan Marie" is one of the last of the twenty 44 MY's built and features the updated teak interior.

Hull Design and Construction

Viking Yachts are known world-wide for their outstanding offshore performance which is a direct result of superb hulls designs and excellent construction techniques.
