Discovering the Valhalla BoatWorks V-55: The Center Console Leader

Introduction to Center Console Innovation

The Valhalla BoatWorks V-55 is a significant milestone in the realm of center console boats, marking a new era where performance, luxury, and versatility coalesce seamlessly. Officially introduced at the 2023 Miami International Boat Show, this remarkable vessel has already captivated the marine market with more than 50 orders, underscoring the strong demand and trust in the Valhalla brand. The V-55 delivers a unique blend of speed, agility, and comprehensive on-deck access, akin to that of outboard-powered center consoles, while providing the engineering depth, accommodations, and amenities of a Viking convertible.

Exceptional Performance and Engineering

At the core of the V-55’s performance capabilities are the Mercury V-12 600-hp outboards, enabling incredible speeds up to 74 mph, depending on the configuration. This vessel’s engineering offers a substantial 1,200-gallon fuel capacity, exceeding many rivals and granting it an extended range for longer excursions. The boat rides on the technologically advanced Stepped-V Ventilated Tunnel (SVVT) hull design by Michael Peters Yacht Design, ensuring a smooth and stable experience even in rough waters. The sophisticated engineering is further typified by the use of fiberglass and carbon fiber/E-glass hybrid fabrics, providing both optimal strength and significant weight savings.

The V-55 is crafted with precision, where meticulous fitting and finish are paramount. Features such as deep drain channels, gaskets in molded channels, and gelcoat-finished doors and lids exemplify a quality of craftsmanship that mirrors the uncompromising standards of the broader Viking portfolio.

Spacious and Luxurious Design

One of the hallmarks of the V-55 is its comprehensive use of space, facilitated by a beam measuring 15 feet, 6 inches. This spaciousness is palpable on deck with dual 65-gallon live wells anchoring the massive cockpit area. For anglers and those enjoying recreational activities, features such as flip-down transom seats, standard dive doors, and twin insulated fish boxes (which can be refrigerated) are included. The interior elevates comfort to new levels, reminiscent of home, with an air-conditioned cabin. This space includes a feature-rich galley, an L-shaped lounge, and a private stateroom complete with a raised walk-around queen bed and separate enclosed shower.

Advanced Features for Ultimate Enjoyment

The V-55 is equipped with an array of features tailored for both cruising aficionados and fishing enthusiasts. The helm is robust yet user-friendly, sporting multiple display screens and a clear sightline through a ProCurve solid glass enclosure. Owners have the flexibility to install factory-installed electronics packages from Garmin or Simrad, or opt for custom systems through Atlantic Marine Electronics. For tailored luxury, the boat offers custom color choices and packages, ensuring your V-55 is as unique as its owner.

Seating on this model can accommodate any need, whether cruising or fishing, with options such as U-shaped lounges or modular arrangements with Release Marine teak chairs. Aft-facing mezzanine seats, tackle storage, drink boxes, and optional grill installations further enhance the vessel’s capabilities and adaptability.
