Viking Holds Vaccination Event
May 7, 2021
Viking Yacht Co. held an initial in-house vaccination clinic last week, inoculating 210 of its more than 1,350 employees with the first dose of the Pfizer vaccine.
The program, organized in conjunction with southern New Jersey’s AtlantiCare, was held at the builder’s facility in New Gretna, N.J. Viking plans to hold another vaccination effort at its Mullica River plant later this month.
Viking said the vaccinations are intended for workers as well as their families.

With the speed and power of a blue marlin on a rampage, Valhalla Boatworks has morphed from the new boatbuilder on the dock to a major player in the luxury center console segment. The brand was launched in late 2019 and yet in just over a year, it boasts a line-up that’s four boats strong. The newest addition is the company’s flagship, the V-46 center console.
Valhalla Boatworks is a subsidiary of Viking Yachts of New Gretna, New Jersey, a family-owned and operated builder of convertibles and motoryachts ranging from 38 to 93 feet. “Our goal when we started Valhalla Boatworks was to be a dominating force in the center console market, and in the 16 months of production we have delivered more than 90 boats,” said Pat Healey, Viking’s President and CEO, at the official launch of the 46 in January.
I have passed this sight many times and always would think I wonder what this big bottle was at one time and I always would say I need to ask our listeners because they will know. And each time I would forget, but this time I took some pictures and I m going to throw it out there.

Now I realize it probably had something to do with sales, maybe a local liquor store? Maybe they even rented space on it for other advertisers? There is another just like it down by New Gretna on Route 9. I believe the one in New Gretna was used to advertise Renault Winery, but don t quote me.

With the cancellation of the February Miami shows this year, Viking Yacht Co. extended its VIP Boat Show in Riviera Beach, Fla., to three days last weekend.
The New Gretna, N.J.-based builder showed 14 Viking models from 38 to 82 feet and the entire Valhalla Boatworks lineup, including the world premiere of the V-46.
“Without the 2021 Miami shows, we decided to give people more opportunity to come to our VIP and see our yachts in a friendly, safe boat-show setting,” Viking president and CEO Pat Healey
said in a statement. “With the extra day, our attendance was spread out over a longer period, which helped with social distancing.”
