The Viking Yacht Company proudly introduces Valhalla Boatworks, a new company dedicated to designing and building high-performance center consoles with the same Viking quality, craftsmanship and expertise that has led the marine industry for 55 years.
In a dramatic black-and-gold-themed night within the amphitheater of Amsterdam's National Maritime Museum, more than 350 guests paid tribute to the Lifetime Achievement of Viking Yachts' Bill and Bob Healey at the IBI-METSTRADE Boat Builder Awards this week.
The award honored the Healey brothers' nearly six decades of remarkable service as they built Viking Yachts into the world's largest manufacturer of high-end sportfishing and motor yachts by following their mantra of building a better boat every day. They also made significant and selfless contributions to the general wellbeing of the boating industry. The Lifetime Achievement Award, was presented to Bob's son Robert Healey Jr, Executive Co-Chairman of the Viking Group.
International Boat Industry (IBI) Editor and Chair of the Boat Builder Awards judge, Ed Slack, commented: "The Boat Builder Awards celebrates the achievements of the people and companies that build the boats that drive our industry."
