Viking Jobs -- The Difference

Our Creed • Our Quality

Viking’s Vision

Viking’s unrelenting quest to build superlative yachts is our company philosophy, our vision and our motivation. The best engineered and built performance luxury yachts you can buy for any price result from this effort. Viking’s dominant position in the industry is directly attributable to this undeviating pursuit of perfection.

The Viking Creed

That Viking builds a superior product is evident upon inspection. According to Pat Healey, Viking Executive Vice President, "What’s different with Viking is that we’re committed to building the best. We are perfectionists. If it’s not right, we tear it out and do it over again. It took a long time to get people to work in this quality mode, but the results are floating down at our docks."

No-compromise Quality and an Unrelenting Attention to Detail

By manufacturing most of its yachts’ components in-house, Viking has an inherent quality control advantage. But this is only a start. At Viking, each yacht is thoroughly inspected by supervisory personnel
at four stages of construction—while in the mold room, following rough mechanical and electrical installation, following finish carpentry, and after finish mechanical and electrical. This attention to detail translates into greater yacht reliability, longevity and higher resale values.

Viking rigorously evaluates new products as they become available before deciding whether to incorporate them in the manufacturing process. As an industry leader, Viking is also actively improving quality and safety standards within the greater boatbuilding industry.
