The Viking 43 Open set the standard for what an open sport-fisher can achieve. Quality Time is a prime example, with factory hardtop and recent upgrades. It’s offered by Allied Marine for $279,000.

The electronics package includes:
- Simrad AP 44 autopilot
- (2) Simrad 12″ EVO 3s
- Simrad EVO 2
- Simrad Pulse compression 24′”Hi-def radar

The centerline helm offers good visibility and all-around control of the yacht from the raised bridgedeck. Backing down on a fish or easing into a tight slip, the 43 responds well to helm and engine commands. The vessel has the factory hardtop and just 1,400 hours on its 625 hp. 6V92-TA DDEC Detroit Diesel engines.
The brokers say, “Super clean, well-outfitted, fast and tough, Quality Time represents an incredible value in a premium express sportfisherman. The vessel shows like a much newer boat, yet affordably delivers the Viking performance, ride, and quality construction that makes brokerage Vikings desirable in any market, and in any location. If you’re not in Southern California, don’t worry. This boat can be trucked or shipped to nearly any fishing grounds on the planet.”
The helm has newer Simrad electronics plus easy access to all controls.

Where is Quality Time located? The vessel is currently lying in San Diego, California.
