Yachting previously wrote: “Viking Yachts’ 72 Convertible flew across the water at an average 37.4-knot, 2,000 rpm cruise speed. The engines were running at just 78 percent load and ­burning 198 gph. At wide-open throttle, my test vessel made 45.5 knots while her engines burned 258 gph. This fishing machine’s fast cruise was 40 knots at 2,120 rpm and 80 percent engine load. Wow.

The builder’s second-generation ­Viking Independent Programmable Electro-­hydraulic Rudder (VIPER) steering ­enabled our 72C to carve two boat-length turns with catlike agility. The VIPER system is fly-by-wire, and you can adjust the amount of toe for each rudder, resulting in a responsive wheel.”
