Features
Viksund boats were designed to operate in the harsh Norwegian climate, so they are in demand in northern countries with difficult sea conditions, including Denmark and Iceland.
The company was one of the first to pay attention to the environmental aspect of shipbuilding and to abandon the use of rare tropical types of wood. In particular, any model of the company could be ordered in a version without their use.
