Theres your problem. Catters don't winterize. I like that falcon. If all I fished was freshwater I'd consider getting one.

If you are interested in a new Falcon, they are starting to build them again

http://www.manta.com/c/mmjp62l/falcon-boats

If you want a used boat there is a guy at Krum that has a 1988 20' CC Not a forward console but center, with big livewell in the front floor,

If you are interested send me a PM and I will give you his name and address!

Great Boat! I have been in this boat on the water...it's so nice and I agree, the outboard Yamaha 4 Stroke is the ticket on the Falcon...it gives so much more room in the boat. thumb

Remember, I get first dibbs on this boat if you ever sell it. lizard

Now were talking!! I have some serious looking to do. I am thinking those walleye boats with the covers are really clever, Also looking into some walkarounds or pilothouse even. Will revert back in after I check everyone's opinions out.

Much Thanks.

All of these aluminum jet boats seem super expensive and are few and far between. By the time I get it here it would cost loads. I wish there was a manufacturer here because in my opinion there is a market.

Some of them have outboard models for quite a bit less but still pricey......

I just bought a used Tuffy boat for a cheap price, its a northern boat for walleye and pike fisherman. I'm doing some minor work on it right now before I take it out on the water, its very wide for comfort and channeled out on the hull design for smooths ride, I'm pretty excited.
