Like its stablemates, the V-46 runs on the patented Michael Peters Yacht Design Stepped-V Ventilated Tunnel hull, designed to reduce drag while increasing speed, stability and efficiency. The V-46 can be powered with triple or quad Mercury Verado V12 600s, paired with Mercury Joystick Piloting and a 757-gallon gasoline fuel capacity for long runs offshore or extended cruising.

The 46 carries the same signature V Series traits – S-shaped sheer, double chines, tumblehome transom bustle and 360-degree fishability – while adding more accommodations and amenities. Its 46-foot, 7-inch length and 13-foot, 4-inch beam create room for a large air-conditioned console cabin with a dinette that converts to a queen berth, galley, refrigerator/freezer, microwave, two-burner stove and private head with shower.

A dedicated machinery room provides protected access to the generator, batteries, battery chargers, water heater, electrical systems and helm electronics. The V-46 also includes a Fisher Panda 9DP diesel generator, 70 gallons of water, a 17-gallon holding tank and a 35-gallon diesel tank for the generator.

At the helm, the elevated console and seating platform improve visibility and increase cabin volume below. The helm layout is clean and operator-friendly, with a black acrylic electronics panel, Bocatech switching, Zip-Wake trim control, Edson wheel and glove box access to key controls.

Seating runs from bow to stern, including the forward console lounge, molded-in forward bench seating, helm seating, second-row options and aft-facing mezzanine seating. Release Marine chairs, GG Schmitt transom seats, upgraded upholstery and Diamond/Bentley stitching give owners the ability to outfit the boat for fishing, cruising or both.

The V-46 is built to fish. Dual 54-gallon transom live wells anchor the cockpit, and the boat can be equipped with additional live well capacity, electric reel outlets, Gemlux rod holders, a Valhalla filet table and Release Marine rocket launcher. The hardtop package includes Lumitec Mirage spreader lights, molded-in electronics and radar pods, overhead lights and an eight-rod rocket launcher. Gemlux outriggers, teaser reel options and Palm Beach Towers lower prep are also available.

A Seakeeper SK 6, bow thruster, anchor chute with windlass, underwater lights, refrigeration options, Costa Marine sunshades and Reverso automatic engine flush system further expand the V-46’s capabilities.

Bottom Line: The V-46 delivers yacht-quality comfort, impressive stepped-hull performance and tournament-level fishability – all backed by Viking engineering and Valhalla build quality.
