KingFisher Boats Introduces the 2026 16 Falcon: Big Adventures in a Compact, Easy-to-Own Package

January 13, 2026

KingFisher Boats is excited to unveil the 2026 16 Falcon, a reimagined 16-foot heavy-gauge aluminum fishing boat built for modern life. Compact, capable, and designed around real-world convenience, the new 16 Falcon makes it easier than ever to get out on the water. 

Built to tow behind a mid-size vehicle, store without stress, and maximize fuel efficiency, the 16 Falcon removes the barriers that hold people back from boating. It’s the ideal choice for anglers and families who want premium quality and performance – without the complexity or cost of a larger boat package. 


Premium Features, Now Standard on a 16’ Boat 
The 2026 16 Falcon comes standard with high-value features including: 

              • 24″ Bench Seats with Storage 

              • Transom-Mounted Reboarding Ladder 

              • Auto Electric 1100 GPH Bilge Pump 

              • Seat Slider for Helm Comfort 


Confidence on the Water 
At the heart of the 16 Falcon is KingFisher’s exclusive Pre-Flex® hull technology, engineered full-length reverse chines, and performance lifting strakes – all designed for a smooth, dry, confident ride. With a maximum horsepower rating of 90 HP, a 12-degree deadrise, and a full-length performance delta keel, the 16 Falcon is ready for everything from quick evening runs to a full weekend on the water. 


Ready for Fishing, Family Time, and Every Moment in Between 
With an 8’1″ cockpit, rod storage for six rods, and Fishmaster XL seating, the 16 Falcon is built for serious fishing and relaxed days alike. Optional upgrades including the Livewell Package and removable ski pole allow owners to customize a setup that fits their lifestyle. 


A Smart Investment in Long-Term Adventure 
Starting at $49,900 CAD, the 2026 16 Falcon combines premium features, proven performance, and everyday convenience in a boat built to last. Durable, versatile, and designed to hold its value, it’s an investment that pays off year after year for new boaters today and the next generation tomorrow. 


KingFisher and Yamaha Reveal Exclusive Matte Brown Engine on 16 Falcon 
The new KingFisher 16 Falcon will be on display at both the Vancouver and Toronto Boat Shows, with the Toronto model exclusively paired with Yamaha’s 70HP Matte Brown outboard. The industry-first finish, now expanded across Yamaha’s mid-range lineup for 2026, offers a low-reflection, nature-inspired look ideal for Canadian anglers and outdoor enthusiasts.
