WHY THIS BOAT
After seeing many boats available for sale, we chose this 43' Viking aft cabin. The main reasons were her large sundeck, the very nice interior and layout, the separate shower for each stateroom, the hydraulic dinghy lift, the updated electronics, and ofcourse the Viking quality. We named her "Athena" which is Greek for Athens, the city I was born in. Ironically, it's also the name of the town Genie and I met while going to school over 47 years ago, Athens, Ohio. Even though the boat was in good condition, we've made many changes and improvements.
Here are some:
* New sundeck aluminum structure and canvas
* Bridge canvas and isinglass enclosure
* New anchor chain
* Two new electric toilets with macerators
* 600 gallons/day watermaker
* Teak table and 4 chairs for sundeck
* New 12' Caribe inflatable
* New 20HP Honda outboard motor
* Replaced the old Dahl filters with Racor 1000's
* All new batteries - Oct, 2020: 2 Odyssey 12V AGM starting batteries for main engines,
1 Odyssey 12V AGM starting battery for generator,
12 Trojan 6V AGM house bank batteries - 1,302 Ah
