The show's largest boat

Sexy, sophisticated — a true performance yacht

Destined to write the latest chapter in high-speed luxury cruising, the Viking Sport Cruisers 70 Motor Yacht delivers world-class performance while raising the bar to new levels of comfort and elegance.

Expansive flybridge

The expansive flybridge, accessed from either the molded stairwell on the aft deck or through the salon staircase, offers ample seating, a wet bar with sink, electric grill, and built-in refrigerator.

Helm

The centerline helm provides superb visibility for the operator and there is a raised sunpad aft with storage below. The davit spans both the flybridge and swim platform to accommodate carrying both a tender and personal watercraft.

Teak deck

The teak aft deck is ideal for relaxing, while port and starboard steps flanking the cockpit area lead to the integrated bathing platform for easy boarding and tender access.

Salon

The salon makes excellent use of the wide beam and allows plentiful seating for family and guests. A large U-shaped settee is to starboard with the well-equipped entertainment center and two barrel chairs opposite. A clever bar area separates the salon from the dining area and features an icemaker, refrigerator, and abundant bottle and glass storage.

Galley

The galley is equipped for preparing magnificent gourmet meals or a late night snack while star gazing on the upper deck. The main helm offers twin adjustable seating and a sliding door to the starboard side deck, while the adjacent raised dinette forward offers panoramic views and enjoys plenty of natural lighting thanks to the large forward windshield and side windows.

Master stateroom

The prominent feature on the lower deck is the full-beam master suite with its walk-through dressing area, built-in entertainment system, and spacious en suite head.

Master head

The lower lobby area is open to the upper windscreen to bathe in natural light and houses a convenient laundry center and storage area. Elegance continues in the forward VIP stateroom with its en suite dressing table and private head with stall shower.

Starboard guestroom

A second VIP stateroom with walkaround berth lies to starboard with a fourth guest stateroom to port.

A two-berth crew quarter with private shower and head is aft under the cockpit deck for privacy and practicality.

Perfect for fun in the sun…

Largest, top-of-the-line Sundancer

Goes the distance with fuel efficiency

To create this flagship of their yacht line, Sea Ray’s design team went back to the drawing board and started from scratch. With three exquisitely appointed staterooms standard, superior performance from the 1100 CR MAN engines and a host of luxurious amenities, this boat is in a class all its own.

Long-distance trips are a breeze at cruising speeds, thanks to optimal fuel efficiency. And standard bow and stern thrusters make docking surprisingly easy. Molded steps, wide walkways and an enormous standard hydraulic-lift swim platform provide convenient access from the dock or water.

Swim platform and passenger entry

Cockpit living

Beautiful wood is standard throughout, from the teak sunroom floor and cockpit chairs to the cherry cabin interior paneling and cabinetry. Even the blinds are wood.

The living is easy in the elegant salon with plush seating. An ultramodern entertainment center houses a 32′ flatscreen LCD TV with remote DVD player and a Bose system. The convenient galley is fully equipped with appliances and superb amenities that allow extended cruising. A 48,000 BTU zone-controlled air conditioning/heating system keeps the cabin comfortable all year.

Galley

Upper sunroom

The climate-controlled cockpit sunroom has a grill, refrigerator and wet bar. The upper sunroom has two large, independently actuated sunroofs in the fiberglass hardtop.

The command station features a color LCD display with auto dimming and enhanced contrast in daylight, hydraulic-power-assisted steering, weatherproof switches, Raymarine electronics and a navigator with touch-screen GPS/chartplotter.

Below decks is a master stateroom with queen bed, sofa, cedar-lined hanging locker, deluxe entertainment center, washer and dryer and private head/shower. Another queen bed is in the forward stateroom; bunk beds are in the guest stateroom. Both rooms have entertainment systems; they share a head/shower.

Domestic debut

Dynamic new design

The design and character of the new 44 Sojourn is strikingly different from other boats — successfully combining the low-profile style and performance of an express cruiser with the roomy bridge, spacious cockpit and open-air salon of a sedan. Additionally, all of the living space is on one convenient stair-less level.

A low profile and an extended superstructure make the yacht look unique, contemporary, lean and aggressive. The extended superstructure also gives the 44 the most spacious bridge of any boat this size. The bridge seats at least 12 people, so guests can enjoy the view from aloft while underway and at dockside. The bridge also has a roomy sun lounge. Add the refrigerator and grill to this area, and you have a self-contained environment that is equal to no other boat.

The helm is designed to accommodate a full array of high tech nav/com instruments, and space is provided to flush-mount a 12″ display. The painted aluminum arch and integral hardtop serve as sturdy mounting platforms for radio, television and radar antennas and as a beefy anchor point for the bridge’s full enclosure.

Step inside the 44, and you’ll immediately notice that unlike an express-style boat, a number of salon windows and an aft sliding door let in plenty of sunlight. Various types of finely finished hardwoods are used throughout the yacht to provide a stylish, contemporary atmosphere. To port is a sectional sofa lounge and to starboard a dinette that seats six and converts to a double bed. The galley is adjacent to the salon and is equipped with a full complement of home-like features.

Situated forward of the galley are two staterooms and two head compartments. The master stateroom has a roomy island berth, and the VIP stateroom features his and hers twin beds. For at-home comfort inner-spring, pillow-top mattresses are used in both staterooms. And, in true Carver tradition, there is plenty of space to store and hang clothing and personal items for an extended cruise.

The large transom platform makes boarding the boat while at dockside safe and convenient. Integrated into the transom is a unique jump seat. The boat’s spacious cockpit has built-in, secure storage for dock lines, fenders and other equipment. A walk to the boat’s foredeck from the cockpit is safe and secure, because the walkway is extra wide and the strong stainless steel handrails have double welded bases. On the foredeck you’ll find a comfortable, double-wide chaise lounge, automatic windlass and remote control spot light.

This all new Carver has been designed for Volvo’s innovative IPS drive system, which provides power to run at 29 knots at cruising speed and achieve a top speed of 32 knots. Volvo IPS drives provide improved propulsion efficiency when compared to traditional shaft-driven systems. And with the joystick control you’ll be able to dock the Carver 44 with a level of precision and confidence that you may never thought possible.

The Carver 44 is an entirely new and unique style of yacht that’s built to accommodate fun-filled time on the water without having to sacrifice comfort, space, style or safety.

New this year

A range of innovations

Take a close look at the New Picnic Boat and you’ll see a familiar, understated aesthetic that merges form and function. Look more deeply, and you’ll discover a range of innovations such as twin-diesel engines, an open-deck design, a raised pilothouse and a hull capable of providing stability and comfort under a wide range of conditions. The Picnic Boat’s love affair with the water lives on.

Higher level of power — Twin 300HP diesel engines, coupled with Hinckley’s Waterjet propulsion and controlled by the patented Hinckley JetStick®, power the New Picnic Boat. It is fast, responsive and quiet with lower drag at speed for fuel efficiency. Lastly, as a waterjet, it is environmentally friendly to our seagoing friends like the manatees — and provides greater safety by not entangling lobster buoys.

True Hinckley hull — The New Picnic Boat has a deeper-V hull for stability and comfort in all weather and sea conditions. Yet it requires only two feet and one inch of draft, making it equally at home a few feet from the beach or well offshore. And, of course, the hull construction is a Vinylester resin-infused composite of Kevlar, E-Glass and Carbon Fiber, making the hull light, stiff and impact resistant.

Open deck design — The twin engines are repositioned to reside completely below deck, freeing up significant space aft for relaxing and entertaining. Built-in storage keeps the entire deck area free of clutter.

Command viewing, superior ventilation — We’ve slightly elevated the pilothouse, and the difference is dramatic. Captains enjoy greater visibility and safety, while power hatches and windows allow passengers to enjoy enhanced climate control and a sense of connection between the onboard and outdoor environment.

Hinckley signatures — JetStick® control. A sculpted salon of handcrafted cherry, teak and holly. And, of course, with eight full service boatyards, a level of service that provides complete management and maintenance of your boat.

Built for fishing

Fish-fighting maneuverability

Designed big to handle any conditions Mother Nature throws its way, this center console also fishes big.

Includes twin 28 gallon livewells and a cavernous cockpit with flip-down aft seating and two in-deck 64″ macerated fishboxes. All the lures, leaders and terminal gear you own will fit neatly into the tackle organizers in the leaning post and console with room to spare. All deck hardware and the bow rail are recessed, and the deck is level from stem to stern for 360 degree fish fighting maneuverability.

Bow seating

Integrated into the console and leaning post, the optional hardtop metalwork carries the clean lines and stylish looks of the deck upward to a two-tone, finished fiberglass top with molded-in pods for speakers, three-hued LED lighting and spreader lights.

Comfort features include soft and elegantly appointed upholstery on seating for 11 and a full step-down console with macerated china head accessed via a highly innovative, electric sliding door.
