    Climbed on a 215 Today

    Well guys my local Merc dealer has started handling Falcons. I had ridden in one on Toledo Bend this year as a marshal and enjoyed getting a first hand look at this one fresh off of the truck. I will say it is a well built boat, good attention to detail in all of the compartments and the layout in the battery compartment with the entire back in open is awesome.

    Now with that said, if he wants to make me a really good deal I might consider swapping over to another bird brand boat, if not, well I think their innovation will catch on with other brands.

    The dealer has asked me to help out at the Houston Boat Show next month. So if you are around and want a tour, look me up. They will have a 195 and a 215 there. Not sure if the 205 they sold already will make it, he might be using it.

    That should be easy. Already the best priced 21' boat on the market even before negotiation.

    We will see Randy. He hinted he would like to get somebody in one. I told him we would talk next week! Thanks.

    Why would he have to hint. He’s a salesman.

    I never heard of falcon until today I like It except the wasted space next to the passenger.

    I like the one Center locker. Still having both rod lockers available. And I really Like that it has no luggage rack type handles on the back like ranger and phx. I’m sure the front deep v design is very stable while fishing.

    I toured the plant a few weeks back. One of the perks of living 15 minutes away.

    Very nice looking boat all around. Solid, thought out and lots of very usable and fisherman friendly features. I think you will see a few new additions/features to the boats in the near future. They are definitely brain storming all the time and have input from tournament guys.

    The boat is big and wide, I will say that.

    Hints are cheap, I don't have the dollars to buy a new boat, will keep what I have!

    Thanks for the observations.
