Viking Yacht Co. plans to make more than 1,000 face shields for workers on the front lines of the pandemic.

With the COVID-19 pandemic gripping the industry, Viking CEO Pat Healey addressed his company’s strategy to “come out stronger.”

Strong sales drive a busy month for the builder.

The boat builder displayed 18 models at the annual event.

The company donated medical supplies to the relief effort.

The presentation took place at the Metstrade boat builder awards.

Viking’s Pat Healey writes to the U.S. State Department, saying pending emissions regulations could cause thousands of job losses, while an entire segment of boats from 90- to 120-ft could be “wiped out.”

The company displayed a record 23 boats at the show.

Viking Yachts management says the pending regulations will cost industry jobs.

“The Viking Difference” takes viewers inside the plant, the yachts, and face-to-face with the people at Viking.

Viking’s annual dealer meeting attracted 300 attendees last week, including the highest number of customers to ever attend the event.

The builder sold nine boats at the Miami Yacht Show and Miami International Boat Show.

Valhalla Boatworks will build three models from 33 to 41 feet.

The company had strong demand for its new 58 Convertible at Fort Lauderdale show.

Viking Yachts is exhibiting two new convertibles at the Miami Yacht Show on Collins Ave., the 68 Convertible and the 44 Convertible.

Viking Yachts introduced its new 93 Motor Yacht, the largest boat the company has ever built, at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show on Wednesday.

The Viking 93 Motor Yacht will have its world premiere at the Nov.1-5 Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show.

Trade Only executive editor Chris Landry will be leaving Active Interest Media to take a position at Viking Yachts as communications director.
