1978 Viking 43
These 43 Vikings were popular boats when new and they remain popular on the used market to this day. And, why not, they offer considerable value for the money--All fiberglass construction, economical diesel power, quality construction by a highly respected builder and a very appealing interior layout, which includes a lower level galley/dinette that opens to the salon, stall showers in both heads, walk-around queen berth in the master and excellent storage throughout. She has many recent upgrades (see full specs) and has been well cared for. These 43 Vikings were popular boats when new and they remain popular on the used market to this day.

Showing very well, Tequila Mockingbird is a must to see if you are in the market for a very clean well kept cruiser or live aboard. She features a very inviting interior; full width aft stateroom with island centerline queen bed, large head with stall shower, roomy salon, galley and dinette down, guest cabin and head forward. Large afterdeck, easy access bridge with aft console and guest seating. Twin G-71N's W/300 , complete electronics w/radar, A/C - heat. Mechanically, structurally, and cosmetically sound.
Viking's first fiberglass motor yacht design, the 43 Double Cabin is essentially a Viking 40 Convertible with a full-width aft cabin. The floor-plan of both boats is the same from the salon forward, and the Double Cabin shares the same proven modified-V hull as her convertible sister-ship. The dinette converts into a double berth, and both heads have separate stall showers. The aft stateroom is large and includes a pair of hanging lockers. Topside, the after-deck is a fine lounging area and only a couple of steps down from the bridge with its aft helm and seating for six.A very popular boat, over 250 Viking 43 Double Cabins were sold during her production run.Boarding this yacht can be accomplished on either the port or starboard side just forward of the sundeck or onto the swim platform and up a ladder on to the sundeck. Once on the large sundeck an entrance to the salon is just off center forward and molded steps up to the flybridge are to starboard. The large foredeck can be accessed by walkways on either side of the boat. Once in the salon, the master cabin companionway is to starboard aft and the lower helm is starboard forward in the salon. Forward of the salon and down, the L-shaped dinette is to port and U-shaped galley is starboard. Forward of the galley is the boats space which can be used as a laundry or storage with the guest head to port. The guest cabin is all the way forward in the bow.This yacht can sleep eigh
