anyone heard of this builder??

[Don Ferrette]

I've never heard of this 1/8th scale builder - Fulk Marine. Anyone know anything or seen any of these boats run??? :unsure:

Falk Marine? He used to be based up in the Grand Rapids, MI area. Made some Sport 40's and 1/8 scale in carbon fiber I think. Other than that, no, I don't know much about him. I remember seeing some ads in the old RCBM's.

I bought a sport 40 from him about 10 years ago was a night mare to set up. Made from carbon fiber light boat but quality was not very good. Had a many pin holes .

I believe this guy sold or tried to sell his business on Ebay a few years back. His Miss Bud looked good in his ads but I never personally seen one.

The radio box was impossible to use molded in to nose of the tub. No room in the motor compartment, never could get it setup to race. Would not recomend it to any one.

Don,

I remember this guy, was thinking of getting one of his boats way back when. I was going on the ad in RCBM, ask him to send me photos of the finished boat and never got anything from him. Talked to him on the phone a couple of times but he couldn't tell me what the bare hull weighed, glad I never ordered one.

I remember that ad, that boat looked wicked, I remember really wanting one back then.

Is he back in business?

Last time I was there, the little hobby shop in Kennesaw, GA had one of his bare 1/8 hulls in the window....
