This Bruce Marek custom-designed high-performance luxury yacht was built by Able Marine. She gets high marks for sailing performance while providing a comfortable and luxurious platform for a family sailing together. She has been professionally maintained by a full-time captain and has had significant refits several times over her life. She is ready for the next cruising adventure.
The five-cabin, four full bath design provides ultimate comfort underway for multiple generations. Hydraulically assisted winches and furlers provide ease of sail handling for a family cruising to a wide selection of exotic destinations.
Falcon has proven herself well in both racing and cruising blue water adventures. She performs well in light air and handles an angry sea with precision.
Over the last few years, there have been many upgrades and replacements. All the overhead opening hatches have been replaced and the sailing instruments have been upgraded to the latest technology.
Master Stateroom
The master stateroom encompasses the entire aft section of the boat. There is a queen bunk to starboard and a second double bunk to port. Between the two beds on the centerline is a table and bench perfect for early morning relaxation. The starboard side has a large hanging locker and drawers and cabinets for ample storage. To port, there is a bulkhead mounted television wired for satellite entertainment. An A/C system dedicated to this compartment along with the stereo and DirectTV system makes this stateroom a comfortable place to relax while in port or at sea. The head features a luxuriously large stall shower with a glass door — a comfortably large area outside the shower where the head and vanity sink is located. For extra comfort, there is a towel warmer mounted to the bulkhead.

The starboard side cabin features a queen bunk as well as a single Pullman berth for overflow accommodations. There are an en-suite shower and head with vanity sink. The hanging locker and chest of drawers combined with underdrawers provide more than sufficient space for guests to unpack.

Both of these staterooms have televisions with DVD and a dedicated a/c system.

The salon features a 40″surround sound TV mounted to the bulkhead, a surround sound stereo, and a DirectTV system. The bar area features an elegant cabinet for wine and cocktail glasses surrounded by a full white granite counter with sink and faucet as well as an ice maker. The wine fridge keeps 24 bottles chilled to the desired temperature. The dining table to starboard provides a comfortable setting for dinner guests. The port side L-shaped settee with coffee table is perfect for a large cocktail party or a relaxing break with a good book or viewing the bulkhead mounted television.
Galley

The Miele two-burner gas cooktop with an electric griddle has an electric oven below and a full-size exhaust hood above. For quick meals, there is a Sharpe Carousel countertop microwave. The Grunert cold plate refrigerator can accommodate the ingredients for a large dinner party or a month-long cruise. The two-door entry allows easy access to every corner. The Grunert freezer below is just as large with a single entry door. There is plenty of counter space on both sides of this railroad-style galley with a large stainless steel sink opposite the oven. The Kitchen Aide dishwasher makes clean up easy.
Pilot House

There is significant storage capacity in the starboard side compartment.This compartment also has a bulkhead mounted television and DVD.Just aft of the crew cabin on the port side is the Captain’s cabin with a single berth raised over a washer and dryer. The companionway opposite this cabin has a ladder to the deck without having to pass through the main salon.There is a dedicated air conditioning unit for each compartment in this section.
On Deck
Falcon features a split cockpit configuration. The forward cockpit, just outside the pilothouse entry, is fully covered by the Sunbrella Bimini top and includes two dining tables, one on each side, with a circular lounge encompassing the tables.The second cockpit just aft has the helm, sail controls, and a full array of navigational equipment upgraded in 2019. The two hydraulic roller furler head stays are controllable form this cockpit. There are separate hydraulic winches on each side for the headsails and a set of smaller self-tailing winches aft. The outhaul, boom vang, and backstay are all adjusted using hydraulic controls in the after cockpit.On deck forward is the anchor windlass with foot controls. At the mast are three winches controlling all halyards and reefing lines for sail control.
