Viking Yachts Riviera Beach Upgrades Equipment with New Marine Travelift

Marine Travelift, February 20th , 2024

Sturgeon Bay, WI – Viking Yachts Service Center in Riviera Beach, FL has recently taken delivery of a new Marine Travelift 150CII (150 metric ton capacity) boat hoist at their north yard. The new unit will replace an older model Marine Travelift and give the Viking team the latest technologies and innovations available. This machine is in addition to a Marine Travelift 150 ton boat hoist and M4200H marina forklift already onsite at the south yard in Riviera Beach.

Viking Yacht has been in the boat manufacturing business since 1964 when they opened their production facility in New Jersey and adopted the mantra “Building a better boat every day”. In 2002 Viking Yachts added the service location in Riviera Beach, FL as an extension of the production facility. Since the facility in New Jersey utilizes multiple Marine Travelift boat hoists, and had experience with the machine quality and service, it was a natural choice to also utilize Marine Travelift equipment at the Riviera Beach location.

The main goal at the Florida facility is to “minimize delays in returning the customers boats back into service as soon as possible while maintaining the highest level of quality and customer service”, stated Raymond Connolly, Director of Customer Services for Viking Yachts. In order to service more customers at once in the most efficient manner, the new machine is equipped with a wireless remote control and Marine Travelift’s patented all wheel electronic steering system.  “The remote control and all wheel steering has enabled us to safely utilize more space at our facility”, said Connolly. He added, “Although the older unit was still fully operational, the updated features on the new 150CII made the decision to update an easy one.”

The All Wheel Electronic Steering (AWS) option provides five modes of steering, including carousel and crab, which is invaluable when operating in tight spaces and has proven to be a great asset for the Viking team already. Connolly mentioned that “the addition of the machine with AWS has been a game changer, allowing us to maneuver better and store more boats in our current footprint.”  Their previous machine, only having the standard two-wheel steering, caused a need for more space to move the machine around, which meant less space for their customers.

The wireless remote control allows the operator to move freely around the machine and vessel, giving them unmatched visibility without the assistance of spotters. The remote also comes with a built in LCD display which provides the operator with load information and engine parameters, similar to the cab display. Connolly says they utilize the remote full time “enabling the operator to maneuver the machine in tight quarters safely and with ease”. All Marine Travelift boat hoists also come with an operator’s cab with direct to valve controls for maximizing machine uptime.

Viking Yachts and Marine Travelift have had a long-standing business relationship that extends back to the production facility in New Jersey and continues with the facility in Riviera Beach. Viking now has a total of seven Marine Travelift units between their different locations. The service provided by Marine Travelift and their official sales/service distributor in Florida, W.E. Johnson Equipment, is a big reason for the continued relationship. When asked about their experience with Marine Travelift and its dealers, Connolly said, “It’s been a great experience. The customer service is outstanding, they always answer the phone and get us answers immediately.”
