The Viking Yachts 54 Sport Tower (ST) delivers incredible versatility, thriving as an owner-operator boat with its command deck layout and helm just steps from the expansive cockpit.

Add a Palm Beach Towers tuna tower and the 54 ST's fishability shoots through the roof. On top of all that is the yacht's spacious and comfortable air-conditioned accommodations (which feature an attractive horizontal-grain walnut interior), available in either a two, or three-stateroom layout.

The 54 ST packs a punch, too, with twin MAN V12 1550MHP engines that propel her to 40-plus knots. Watch video below for a guaranteed adrenaline rush.
