Viking 82

The Viking 82 builds on the legacy of the most successful 80-foot sportfishing yacht ever built – the Viking 80. Over its production run, 54 boats were delivered, proving that a large sportfisher could consistently compete and win on the tournament circuit. The Viking 82 carries that lineage forward with three bridge configurations to match how owners fish and cruise.

The Open Bridge delivers the classic sportfishing experience. Three Release Marine teak helm chairs sit atop a raised teak platform, giving the captain and crew a direct view of the cockpit and surrounding waters. The center console layout allows easy movement around the helm, with electronics and overhead teaser reels right where you need them. Lounge seating runs along both sides of the console, while a large forward lounge offers space to relax between bites.

Owners who want climate-controlled comfort often choose the Enclosed Bridge. The air-conditioned helm protects from the elements while maintaining the view serious anglers rely on. This configuration can be paired with a Palm Beach Towers tuna tower, as shown.

Inside, the Enclosed Bridge provides excellent visibility through a one-piece windshield. Five displays are arranged for precise command of the boat. Behind the helm, the space serves as a second salon, offering a comfortable area for guests during long offshore runs.

For many owners, the Sky Bridge offers the best balance of comfort and open-air operation. This design pairs the enclosed bridge below with an open helm above, combining protection with the freedom of running outside.

At the upper station, the Sky Bridge helm puts you on top of the world, with a clear view of the horizon and the cockpit below. Integrated displays and engine controls are laid out for quick operation. Overhead teaser reels are within reach, and the open-air design delivers the feel many captains prefer offshore.

Choose the bridge configuration that fits your fishing program and family lifestyle and see why the Viking 82 remains one of the most sought-after sportfishing yachts on the water.
