phil_taipan117 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Now that the $AUS has hit parity with the greenback [i remember it touched 48 cents back in about 2003] out of interest I checked out the price of a F16 Falcon, made in Florida. Their website [http://www.falconmarinellc.com/falcon.html] lists 2010 prices. The base boat with complete F16 sloop rig (Glaser sails) is priced at $16,990. Packaging and container for shipping is $750. I have no idea what the shipping cost to Oz would be. Formula Catamarans Australia (http://www.formulacatamarans.com/pricing.html) lists the base price of a cat rigged Blade at $21,000. Both prices are based on aluminium masts. I haven't seen any recent Viper prices to include AHPC in the comparsion, but I expect they would be struggling to be competitive price-wise in the US, even though built in Asia.

Aido Posted October 17, 2010 Report Share Posted October 17, 2010 Would be a good time to buy a falcon if that's what you are after. I don't think you will save much money tho. If any. Order one now and it might be here for the f16 nationals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
