Comments Tankage

"Raven" (formerly "Iliad") has recently changed hands, and her new owners are in the process of competing several upgrades (including the addition of a new flat screen TV/DVD).  More information to come!  Common to the Pacific Northwest, the raven is a beautiful bird, distinctive for it's strength and intelligence as well as it's important role in the local Native American stories & traditions.  Listen while at anchor and you will likely hear a raven calling from the treetops. 

Like her namesake, "Raven" has impressive strength and speed under both sail and power. A product of intelligent design she tracks well and offers easy motion and predictable handling characteristics, as well as a generous bright and sunny 3 cabin / 2 head interior.  A true racer/cruiser  with an international reputation as the leader in her class.

bulletWater: 131 gallons (simplified system with level gauge new for 2009)

bulletHolding:  52 gallons in two tanks, with y-valve and macerator.
