Charleston, SC – From Huk, “Drageskip: Viking Yachts” features Capt. Ryan Higgins, southeast sales manager and demonstrator program manager for Viking Yachts.   

Watch “Drageskip: Viking Yachts” on Hukgear.com where Ryan begins the film explaining how growing up he would spend his summers fishing with friends and family and how that fueled his love for offshore fishing and passion for boats.  He turned that passion into a career and has been with Viking for over 16 years.

“Drageskip: Viking Yachts” gives an insider look at Viking’s philosophy of building a better boat every day and how Viking is leading the industry today in performance, innovation, engineering and luxury.

In the old norse world, the DRAGESKIP was the premiere vessel of the time. The literal translation is “Dragon Ship” which was named for the iconic dragon head on the bow of the boat, but the meaning was deeper. It was the drageskips that were revered in the viking world as the elite watercraft, much like the current Viking Yacht fishing boats.

In nearly every marina or every tournament, Vikings are some of the most prevalent and well-respected boats in the water. The boats are a mix of floating works of art and well-tuned machines. Machines that are designed to be run and fished as hard as any. But what is more admired, is the company’s dedication to their products and the passions that fuel them.
