Viking 70 Enclosed Bridge

The 2015 70' Viking Enclosed Bridge shares the same sexy lines and style of the open bridge version. The sheer line is pure eye candy starting with a tall and aggressive rake to the stem that tapers effortlessly to a modest three feet of freeboard at the stern. A black metallic windshield mask wraps around the front of the deckhouse and transitions seamlessly into the dark tinted windows, which terminate in a teardrop shape.

Accommodations are more than spectacular. The air conditioned enclosed bridge is easily accessed from the cockpit mezzanine with a powder-coated custom made aluminum ladder, or the salon via a hand-finished teak staircase. For superb visibility, the helm is forward and engine instrumentation and electronics nest in a raised wraparound console covered in black ultra-leather. A Moritz OctoPlex touch screen monitor controls the yacht’s systems and includes audible and visual alarms. Accessory switches for equipment are located above the windshield for easy reach.

A stainless-steel destroyer-style wheel is matched to Viking's exclusive VIPER proprietary programmable steering system with independent rudders for precise response and reduced drag. Take the helm and see how quick and athletic this 61 plus ton yacht handles when you turn. Single lever engine controls throttle up effortlessly to speeds approaching 40 knots, depending upon ambient conditions, engine selection and sea state. The adjustable Stidd helm chair is flanked with a pair of companion seats, each with built-in stowage. Abaft the helm area, a raised L-shaped lounge on the starboard side affords unobstructed views and with its large teak cocktail table creates an intimate dining area, or convenient work station. A flat screen television rises from the teak cabinetry at the push of a button. A refrigerator with a built-in ice maker keeps refreshments close at hand.

A lockable door accesses the aft deck with a pod style helm for docking or fishing maneuvers. A molded fiberglass seat with a cushion top and stowage inside, powder-coated railing, quartz lights, and two hatches in the hardtop roof are among the many standard features.

Four and five stateroom configurations are available. For everything from fun fishing to serious cruising, the Viking 70 Enclosed Bridge is the undisputed top of its class.
