Falcon has been well loved and looked after by her present owner with constant maintenance and servicing to keep her in excellent condition. She has been taken from the water each year and serviced annually. The 200hp Volvo makes her a fast boat but also economical, using about 5 gallons of diesel per hour at cruising speed. The present owner has cruised her extensively one trip from the Deben to Portsmouth a distance of 165 miles in 7 hours an average of 24 knots and fuel consumption of 32 gallons.
This classic boat, its type famous for being driven by James Bond is well worth viewing.
