Storage Boats: Viking O
Formerly WHITE TAIL, VIKING O is a 40-foot keel ketch designed by Bothen and created by an unknown builder in Sweden in 1937. She was substantially rebuilt by the Arundel Shipyard in Kennebunk, Maine, and is a handsome and somewhat modern design for her time. Some of these forward-thinking details are air foil shaped spars and art deco wings carved into her hull planking. The current owner enjoys the boat so much that this is the third time he has owned it! Rockport Marine replaced the engine and fuel tanks in 2007.
