Manufacturer Provided Description

Destined to write the latest chapter in high-speed luxury cruising, the Viking Sport Cruisers 70 Motor Yacht delivers world-class performance while raising the bar to new levels of comfort and elegance. The expansive flybridge, accessed from either the molded stairwell on the aft deck or through the salon staircase, offers ample seating, a wet bar with sink, electric grill, and built-in refrigerator. The centerline helm provides superb visibility for the operator and there is a raised sunpad aft with storage below. The davit spans both the flybridge and swim platform to accommodate carrying both a tender and personal watercraft. The teak aft deck is ideal for relaxing, while port and starboard steps flanking the cockpit area lead to the integrated bathing platform for easy boarding and tender access. The salon makes excellent use of the wide beam and allows plentiful seating for family and guests. A large U-shaped settee is to starboard with the well-equipped entertainment center and two barrel chairs opposite. A clever bar area separates the salon from the dining area and features an icemaker, refrigerator, and abundant bottle and glass storage. The galley is equipped for preparing magnificent gourmet meals or a late night snack while star gazing on the upper deck. The main helm offers twin adjustable seating and a sliding door to the starboard side deck, while the adjacent raised dinette forward offers panoramic views and enjoys plenty of natural lighting thanks to the large forward windshield and side windows. The prominent feature on the lower deck is the full beam master suite with its walk through dressing area, built-in entertainment system, and spacious en suite head. The lower lobby area is open to the upper windscreen to bathe in natural light and houses a convenient laundry center and storage area. Elegance continues in the forward VIP stateroom with its en suite dressing table and private head with stall shower. A second VIP stateroom with walkaround berth lies to starboard with a fourth guest stateroom to port. A two berth crew quarter with private shower and head is aft under the cockpit deck for privacy and practicality.
