Here's a couple of pics of the Falco 16 at a nearby lake.
Calm water doesn't make for the best test conditions, but at
least do show that it floats :)

Actually, it performs quite well vs my other boats like the Sea Ranger.
The only mild surprise was it's greater than expected stability. That
and it's hull flex makes it feel a bit like a Sonnet 16.

If you don't like this $150.00 Greenland folder that assembles in 6 minutes, you can always
spend $4,000.00US for a similar looking one built by the commercial guys that assembles in 30 minutes :)
