Thanks guys. I think I will go with a Falcon when I am ready. As you said it has all the latest updates and optimization. And with Matt and Gina sailing them and behind us all the way I can't go wrong. Just have to workout some business details.

We are fortunate to have 2 very good choices in the US. Viper is rated the same because it is an F-16. Both manufacturers give fantastic support (yes Goodall makes the world seem smaller by being very accessible). Each have their pros & cons. For most of us, the difference is our abilities and conditions. For example, Eric Witte (Northeast dealer) was excellent uni-sailing the Viper in 20 kt conditions @ Rockhall, MD last month and smoked the Blade sailors. Eric was out done by Constatine Seremetis on a F16 Taipan fitted with a Glaser main that happens to be optimized for uni-high wind conditions.
I am a fan of both because it can only attract more to the F16 class!
