'RAIDO'
This Viking 26 cc is a rare craft from the Viking range in offering a central cockpit with accommodation forward and aft.

The main feature of the Viking 26 cc is the aft cabin which offers a double berth that can be permanently made and a lowering windscreen which together with the narrow beam enables this boat to travel virtually every river and canal in the country.
Forward the 26cc is rare in her class to continue to offer close on 6' headroom, a full size toilet and shower compartment, excellent galley, dinette to seat four or sleep two and a further double berth forward.
