Thank you all for taking the time to bring to light some of the issues and other options to consider.
We are going to take a step back and reevaluate. The sale on the Viking is not going to happen.
Yes there was some history tied to the boat but after removing that part from the equation the
math and other options became clear. I thank you all for taking the time to save us from our selves.
Looking forward to more info from you guys when when we settle on another more suitable ride.

Now we're talking, and you're welcome. :D
Don't forget the free 36 Hatteras convertible down in Rockport, TX.
Always happy to help talk someone down off the ledge. We've all been there before and most of us have been doing this a long time. That Tiara looks like it would be well worth a look. Great boat with fresh power for much less than the Viking would have cost
This thread has me thinking about a better end to old yachts than the crusher. Like the 48' vikings mentioned-not economically viable to fix. So strip engines seacocks, exhaust, etc etc and turn them into a cabin in the woods. Obviously we would need some liberal zoning law-but it does exist. Put in septic system, a well or creek water and we got a cool cabin with everything already there. Galley, bathrooms, staterooms, etc,etc. And mind you, cabins ain't cheap if they have (3) stateromms, (2) bathrooms, nice outside areas etc. And the septic and well would be needed for a cabin in same location. This concept beats having tons of FRP in landfills.
OK, I am strange'
