Survey watch points

Standard fuel capacity disagrees on the manufacturer page

medium risk · unresolved · documentation

Viking's current 68 Convertible specifications table lists 2,060 US gal standard fuel; engineering prose on the same page lists 2,015 US gal. Optional capacity is listed as 2,377 US gal in the table.

Standard fuel capacity is an open documentation conflict on the current manufacturer page (viking-current-68c-model-page).

The specifications table lists 2,060 US gal standard and 2,377 US gal optional. Engineering prose on the same page states standard capacity as 2,015 gallons with the same optional upgrade path. Research records both standard values as conflicting evidence rather than inventing a reconciled tank size.

For survey or range planning, confirm the hull's installed tankage; published page copy alone is not sufficient.

  • Confirm installed tankage from builder paperwork or physical inspection; do not pick one published figure without hull confirmation.
  • Keep the optional 2,377 US gal figure separate from the unresolved standard figure.
