A 21 meter Viking sportfish yacht titled m/y Blue Rush ended beached and aground in Punta Sam, to the North of Cancun, Mexico on a story which was shared on TheQualifiedCaptain Instagram page on nine January. The sportfish is filmed beached, and what looks a surveyor is taking photos of the hull. The causes of the grounding are not reported, with the usual Instagram speculation comments following the story, from those of a sleeping captain to the voluntary dry dock and free bottom job for the cheap. It will be interesting to know more at this stage, although because of insurance claims doubt we will ever hear about it. The damage to the Viking sportfish is social media reported the be only to its propellers, with the yacht dry docked a couple of days later to the grounding.
Motor yacht Blue Rush is a 2023 Viking 72 Convertible as produced from 2016 to 2024 in 75 units, these numbers including the Enclosed Bridge version. The Viking 72 Convertible came out as a replacement to the 70 Convertible and was replaced by the 74 Convertible.
