IF I had the money, that Viking would be tempting.

I've ridden on one, drove it around, it's a sweet ride. Great to fish
off of too.

One other I'd consider is this:

I've been on one of these too - very sweet.


Cabos are nice...very well-built. But I've heard mixed opinions on how
well they ride.

I've never heard a negative about the Vikings.


Agree on the Cabos. I did a couple of tuna chasing days on a friend's 35'
Flybridge. Nicely finished boat, but rode hard, even in light to moderate
chop.

If you like Vikings, (as do I) you should also check out:

I've spent a little time on one (40' or so). Fit and finish a bit better
than Viking, IMO, and the ride was very impressive given the sloppy day we
went out. Nice boats.
