As some of you know, i bought Ron Bakers Vking close to 4 years ago, prior to his getting sick. I had every intention on restoring, but time, once again, has gotten in the way. The boat has been stored with nose up to keep dry, and needs cosmetics, paint and interior. This boat was last raced about 4 years ago, just before i got it from Ron, with a 225 ProMax. Strong transom, new floor that Ron or Jeff put in, bottom is solid. In my view, this is a cool boat, as Ron designed the Viking, and this was his race boat. It has the complete cable pulley steering, center steer set up, with Ron's foot throttle, and Nydahl shifter. Also has Gaffrig gauges mounted on the top of the dash. The coolest things about it are the signature Ron was kind enough to place on the side, and the additional strake on each side, as he originally designed the boat. $2,500, no trailer. would do a partial trade of $1,500 and a good bubbleback v4 or a good inline Merc, 115, at least. located in Maryland. As some of you, I never planned to sell and have never offerred this up previously. A lot on my plate right now, and just honestly do not see me getting to this for a number of years. I would love to see someone buy and get it rolling. I really do not want to sell to someone that does not appreciate it. Thanks a lot. Ronny 410 394 9000 work number. If you decide to get, I will throw in a brand new aluminum rubrail and factory Hydrostream rear bench seat, and one bucket, also a factory hydrostream piece. this is a center steer boat, so the one bucket is what it needs. thanks again. make serious offer if interested, but please don't be insulting.
