I noticed in the "What do you paddle?" thread that there were a few Swift Raven owners on board. I'd like to hear your impressions of the canoe.
I'm 6'02" and 225#s and currently paddle sitting, single blade, single side in a Swift Keewaydin 15. I've started experimenting with paddling kneeling, single blade, single side. I'm very happy with the Keewaydin 15 but I'd like to keep it as a flat water canoe. I love it too much to bounce it down a river. So that starts me looking for a Royalex canoe.
Please tell me about your Raven. What do you like, what don't you like?
