Palm Beach Towers - More than metal

With locations at Viking in New Gretna, New Jersey, and at the Viking International Yacht Center in Riviera Beach, Florida, Palm Beach Towers (PBT) has been the industry leader in the design, fabrication and installation of custom tuna towers for two decades.

But this Viking subsidiary does much more than design and fabricate the (anodized aluminum) tower. PBT also creates, builds and installs many exterior fiberglass parts, including the hardtops for our larger convertibles such as this 72 Open. They make it look so easy, but there's a tremendous amount of skill, experience and teamwork required for every job such as this, which took place last week at our Make Ready Dock in New Jersey.

The 72 Open with hardtop (and no tower) has been enjoying a recent surge as of late - we'll deliver three yachts (including the Snow White model featured in our video) in the next several weeks with this bridge configuration. Look for pics in a future Viking View.
