This triple- or quad-powered offshore runner has taken the reins as a leading high-performance center console between 40 and 45 feet. The V-41 is available with triple or quad Mercury Verado 425 V10s, quad Mercury Verado V8 300s or triple Yamaha V8 450 XTOs. Joystick control is available with Mercury JPO or Yamaha Helm Master, giving owners confident low-speed handling and station-keeping capability.

The V-41 excels on the tournament circuit, with a clean deck layout that maximizes the boat’s 360-degree access and an arsenal of standard and optional fishing features. The transom holds a 90-gallon live well. The decks are filled with insulated fishboxes, and rod holders can be installed virtually anywhere. A raised live well can be integrated into the forward lounge for quick access while fishing from the bow. Owners can also opt for an in-deck live well in the cockpit. On-deck live well inlet and discharge fittings can also be installed.

The Viking subsidiary Palm Beach Towers designs, fabricates and installs optional gap towers with a custom hardtop and an upper helm station. “The gap towers match the quality and design of those on Viking sportfishing boats,” says Drew McDowell, PBT General Manager. “Large-diameter piping is fabricated with angles and tapering locations specifically engineered for maximum strength.”

V-41 owners have great flexibility when it comes to outfitting the tower. “Not only can you have equipment such as recessed teaser reels, you can go for specialized features like integral kite boxes in the forward end of the hardtop,” says Drew. PBT is also designing a custom control box for the gap tower upper helms with a space-saving flush mounting surface.

The V-41 is designed and built to fish, no doubt, but the flagship also excels as a luxury tender or sleek sport cruiser thanks to her diverse deck layout choices, including an aft mezzanine seating module with armrests and an insulated cooler under the seat. Forward seating with backrests, an anchor windlass, a port-side dive door and additional cup holders round out the day-cruising conveniences.

“The V-41 takes you to the next level of center console design, fishability, performance and convenience,” says Design Manager David Wilson.
