92-Foot Luxury Yacht Stuck in Delray Beach Finally Removed

One of the greatest fears among boat owners is being the subject of a viral video. Usually that anxiety is centered around things like docking at a busy marina or trying to navigate infamous passages like the Haulover Inlet.

Sadly, for the owner of a stunningly beautiful 92-foot (28 m) Viking luxury yacht, his dilemma has been making headlines for all the wrong reasons.

Residents in Delray Beach, Florida awoke on Friday to the massive yacht beached next to residential homes.

It was stranded there the entire weekend until TowBoatrUS in Fort Lauderdale was able to free the vessel on Monday from its position.

Captain Larry Acheson, president of the company, told WPTV they had 20 people working to try and free the boat from its hangup.

"We had various vessels all with different missions," he told WPTV . "We had to pull the diesel fuel off board. Various people on the beach and various people on the disabled vessel. If it starts taking on water, we had to have people running the pumps."

Seth Stern from the ultra-popular boating YouTube channel Wavy Boats , told WPTV reporter Chris Gilmore "You'll never see a boat like this beached again in your lifetime."

"This is not a small boat. This is not a small operation," he added.

According to Stern, the Viking's engines locked up and a generator malfunctioned during high winds on the ocean off Delray Beach, resulting in the boat being unable to control its movement before being steadily pushed onshore by powerful waves. According to Delray Beach police, three people were onboard the vessel when it ran into trouble.

"The attempts that I have witnessed have been unsuccessful due to the lines snapping due to the sheer weight of the boat," Stern told WPTV .

"Today it's nice to see they're pumping off all the fuel and oil to prevent any kind of environmental spill for when they do pull this boat off. It'll also lighten the boat tremendously, making the rescue much easier," added Stern.

The boat, named Pastime , is a Viking Sport Fisherman with an estimated value of about $10 million USD. Viking Yachts are one of North America's most prized brands with a devoted following. The company was founded in 1964 by brothers Bob and Bill Healey and is widely regarded as one of the most innovative brands in boating . They're also popular among celebrities and big-time sport-fisherman thanks to their ability to blend luxury with hardcore fishing amenities. NBA legend Michael Jordan, who aside from his extensive basketball resume, is well-known for participating in sportfishing tournaments with his epic 80-foot Viking Catch-23 .

You can see Pastime in her predicament in the video from Wavy Boats below:

*UPDATE* 11/10/23- Viking has released a statement regarding the incident:

Viking 92 Freed from Florida Beach

This isn’t supposed to happen.

But last Friday afternoon, a Viking 92 sportfishing yacht named Pastime ended up on the beach in Delray Beach, Florida. The 151-ton boat, launched in 2016, was stuck in the sand, and couldn’t get off.

Despite heroic rescue efforts, it remained there for two days, until TowBoatUS was able to pump out more than 1,000 gallons of fuel and water and, working on a high tide, float it off. Remarkably, early reports say the Viking suffered just bent props and rudders. (I’ve been to the Viking factory in New Gretna, New Jersey, many times over the years; Vikings are built like little battleships.)

The problems started when a three-person crew was taking the boat from Palm Beach down to Fort Lauderdale. The details are scanty, but somehow the boat lost power off Delray Beach in 30-knot winds and 10-foot seas. The twin 2,600-hp MTU V12 diesels stopped, and the generator malfunctioned. Reports say the fire suppression system shut down the power for some reason.

In any event, the waves pushed the boat toward the beach, and there also apparently was a problem with the anchor. The captain decided to beach the boat to keep it from drifting.

He had first called the Coast Guard and both TowBoatUS and Sea Tow vessels responded. As you can see in the video below, their efforts to secure a line to the Pastime failed several times when the lines snapped.

Pastime was finally refloated on Sunday afternoon and it reportedly was taken to the Viking Service Center up in Riviera Beach on Lake Worth.

The boat, previously named Sweet Tuna , was sold last year. The asking price was $8,750,000.

Viking Yachts issued a statement saying that the yacht “encountered a fuel interruption to the generators and then main engines, at which point the 92 C lost power. It was set adrift as the captain and crew tried to resolve the problem. The crew tried to deploy the anchor by releasing the brake, but unfortunately, the devil claw was still attached. It subsequently was lodged in the deployment chute, rendering the anchor unusable. The 92 C came to rest on the shore in Delray Beach, Florida.”  It also said that technicians at the Viking service center “determined that the incident was not the result of manufacturing or design error and that the damage was minimal.”

92-foot luxury boat beached in Delray Beach since Friday removed

DELRAY BEACH, Fla. — A 92-foot luxury boat worth several million dollars beached in Delray Beach since Friday was removed Sunday afternoon.

TowBoatrUS Ft. Lauderdale was able to move Past Time, which had lost power and beached at Linton Avenue, out of the sand.

The yacht was moved out of the way at 3:15 p.m. and headed on a three-hour trip to Viking Service Center in Riviera Beach.

Captain Larry Acheson, president of the company, said he had 20 people working to remove it since Friday.

"We had various vessels all with different missions," he told WPTV. "We had to pull the diesel fuel off board. Various people on the beach and various people on the disabled vessel. If it starts taking on water, we had to have people running the pumps."

Acheson said he could not disclose information on the owner.

Seth Stern with Wavy Boat, who had been taking video of the boat Past Time the past few days, told WPTV reporter Chris Gilmore "You'll never see a boat like this beached again in your lifetime."

The Viking 92's engines locked up and a generator malfunctioned in high winds, Stern said.

"This is not a small boat. This is not a small operation," Stern said.

On Sunday, crews with the Fort Lauderdale towing company were trying to get the yacht back in the water, including pumping out fuel.

Despite several failed attempts, they planned to get it back in the water at high tide.

"The attempts that I have witnessed have been unsuccessful due to the lines snapping due to the sheer weight of the boat," Stern said. "Today it's nice to see they're pumping off all the fuel and oil to prevent any kind of environmental spill for when they do pull this boat off. It'll also lighten the boat tremendously, making the rescue much easier."

Stern did some research to see the value of the boat.

"I looked one up just to see the prices and there's currently one listed for $12 million, but it doesn't have some of the same bells and whistles as this one," he said. "So the estimation of $15 to $16 million is fairly accurate on this boat. However every day it sits here getting battered by the waves that value has to go down."

Another boat has been stranded at Jacksonville Beach for two weeks.

Luke Rehberg told First Coast News he has decided to demolish "Aqualon," which he had called him.

Manufacturing or design error not the fault of 28m Viking yacht Pastime's grounding

Following a statement from Viking Yachts , the grounding of the 28.4-metre yacht named Pastime has been attributed to a loss of power caused by "fuel interruption" to the generators and main engines. 

"[ Pastime ] was set adrift as the captain and crew tried to resolve the problem. The crew tried to deploy the anchor by releasing the brake, but unfortunately, the devil claw was still attached," explained a spokesperson for the shipyard. "It subsequently was lodged into the deployment chute rendering the anchor unusable. [She then] came to rest on the shore in Delray Beach, Florida."

Pastime is now at Viking Yachts' Riviera Beach service centre, with minimal damages reported – including a bent prop and rudders. The statement concluded: "Once we receive the needed parts and materials, we expect to have the boat back fishing hopefully by the New Year. Most importantly, the captain and the crew are safely ashore with no incident."

This follows Pastime 's successful ungrounding on Sunday 5 November after her accident at Delray Beach, Florida on 3 November. TowBoatU.S (a towing service based in Pompano Beach) was able to rescue her after pumping out over 1,000 gallons of fuel and water.

Prior to running aground, a towing company arrived on the scene to pull the 2016 Viking model to safety, but multiple lines snapped and the towing attempt was initially unsuccessful. 

The yacht is one of just a few Viking 92 models with an open bridge and according to BOATPro , she spends the majority of her time cruising in Florida. She was delivered as Sweet Tuna and sold in 2022 with a last known asking price of $8,750,000. 

Pastime was en route to Fort Lauderdale at the time of the incident.

Beached Yacht Still Beached On Delray Beach

• Sunday, 5 November 2023, 11:41
• Delray Beach , Florida , News , Palm Beach County

BY: STAFF REPORT | BocaNewsNow.com

UPDATE: 1:55 p.m. Saturday — Delray Beach Police officials tell BocaNewsNow.com that it’s a 92-foot Viking Sport Fisherman yacht that lost power on Friday. Three occupants were on board at the time of the beaching. Sea Tow is working with the crew to try to salvage the vessel. (Thanks to reader comments, BocaNewsNow.com concurs that this doesn’t quite look like it’s 92 feet long, but we’ll stick with the official version since it’s the official version).

DELRAY BEACH, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2023 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — No crime and no controversy, but there is a rather sizable yacht beached on Delray Beach Saturday. The beaching is notable as lots of BocaNewsNow.com readers are reaching out for details. Here’s what we know:

The yacht became beached Friday afternoon as winds were exceptionally strong for the region in early November and — it would seem — the captain got him or herself into a situation before her or she could get out of it. As a result, the yacht got stuck on sand and couldn’t break free. It’s been there for nearly 24 hours.

The goal: high tide is just before 4 p.m. on Saturday. We understand that the crew is hoping high tide will be enough to break the yacht free from the sand. If not, it becomes a much bigger deal as a towing vessel may be required to move the vessel.

The Delray Beach Police Department did not immediately respond to a request for information on Saturday, but again, bad luck is not traditionally a crime. There are no injuries that we are aware of. And the weather, overall, isn’t bad for being stuck on a boat in a desirable location.

We thank our readers for sending photos. We’ll update if we receive any additional information.

THE FINE EXPERIENCE 65' Viking 2001

This 2001 65 Viking was originally built for a very knowledgeable, repeat Viking owner, getting all of the boxes checked for a cruising, freshwater boat, including a Radar mast that can drop down to get under 20'. She boats the desirable 4-stateroom layout and two generators. In 2017 she received a $700,000 refit, including a total paint job. Her current owner the last 2-4 years spent another $500,000 updating the electronics and getting the 3000-hour service, as well as fresh cutlass bearings, shafts, and shaft seals. She's ready for wherever you want to take her. Easy to see in Fort Lauderdale. Call for more information.
