By popular request, we have
shortened the Raven to give a canoe easier to car-top on smaller
vehicles. She can take 2 adults plus camping gear and uses
the same simple stitch and tape construction process. The
hull has the Raven family’s 3 panels per side plus a
flat bottom panel and tumblehome giving her maximum beam down
at the waterline. Again, stowage and buoyancy is built into
the bow and stern.
The pictures show a nice example by Andrea Bugarelli.
