Description
The 2000 55’ Viking Convertible is a legendary offshore sportfishing yacht, widely respected for its combination of tournament-level performance, rugged construction, and refined cruising accommodations. Built on a solid fiberglass modified-V hull, this model delivers a smooth, stable ride in challenging offshore conditions while maintaining the speed and agility serious anglers demand. With twin high-horsepower diesel engines, the vessel is capable of cruising around 30 knots with top speeds approaching the mid-30-knot range.
Below deck, the 55 Convertible showcases Viking’s hallmark craftsmanship with a spacious three-stateroom, two-head layout. The salon is open and inviting, highlighted by high-gloss teak cabinetry, large windows, and comfortable seating, seamlessly connecting to a well-appointed galley with premium appliances and ample storage. The master stateroom is typically located amidships for maximum comfort, complemented by a forward VIP and an additional guest cabin, making the vessel well-suited for extended trips with family or guests.
With over 100 units built, the 55 Viking Convertible has proven itself as one of the most successful and sought-after sportfish models of its era. Its reputation for durability, performance, and fishability has made it a consistent presence on the tournament circuit while also serving as a luxurious and capable offshore cruiser.

Ian was raised in Greensboro, spending his summers on the coast of NC in Beaufort. During those summers, Ian discovered his love for the water. He spent most days on the water, fishing and exploring the Crystal Coast. He started his first job detailing boats at Town Creek Marina when he was 15 years old, commuting down Taylor’s Creek on his skiff. The following summer he started working as a dock hand at Olde Towne Yacht Club and remained there each summer until starting college at UNCW. Before leaving for college, Ian spent his last month at Greensboro Day School doing his senior project at Shearline Boatworks where he realized his passion for custom boatbuilding. While at UNCW he worked at Atlantic Marine and finished his college career working at Johnson Custom Boats doing restorations and refits. Ian was also involved in their family business, NCboatinglifestyle magazine. The magazine gave him opportunities to visit various boat builders, manufacturers, and dealers across North Carolina and stay involved in the boating community. Ian spends most of his spare time on the water and surrounded by boats. Let Ian’s sales experience and knowledge of boats work for you!
