Raven features a cold-molded western red cedar hull and deck, laminated mahogany/spruce ring frames, and a white oak keel with a bulb lead keel by Mars Metals, Ontario. Teak decks add elegance, though they require refinishing. The interior offers comfortable living space, with a CUB Cubic Mini Wood Stove for warmth.
