Hydrostream here in the US had not made the vking in years. Maybe John up at Hydrostream Canada built it as he was still building them long after they stopped here. Ask if its a Canadian built Hydrostream. If he says it want and was built here, he its pulling your leg.

Unless it was the one and only one built by bottoms up with the original vking mold. I think that that is a blue one. Look up the user BottomsUp on scream and fly. He will tell you more on it.

the boat is listed on Scream and Fly in the under 20 thread, I think he lookin for 8500 thats with power but the boat IS NOT FINISHED , he s the 2 nd owner of a boat that nevr got wet. the guy that had the boat built sold it to him cause he needed the money and had to give up some of his toys

If the boat is yellow, I remember one or two being built around that time. They didn't get enough interest in the traditional models and forged ahead with the "new" Hydrostreams.

I sat in a yellow viking yt @ jasper in 2002 or 3. I think Spaeth built all the hulls for the old style hulls of that time period. So yea, it could be an old/new v king.
