Remarks
The 43 Viking Express is highly sought after for it's versatility, pedigree, performance and comfort at sea. The full tower allows the captain to spot birds, locate weed lines and debris in the water and ultimately put anglers on the fish. The tournament inspired cockpit is rigged for serious fishing and diving. "Wastin Away" has a proven track record of raising fish...this boat released a blue marlin off Islamorada on the first fishing trip last year.
