https://www.boats.com/reviews/raveau-restoration-a-classic-runabout-returns/ The above link is to a good article about the history of the Raveau. Also featured in the March/April 2011 edition of Wooden Boat magazine. A 1961 design built new in 1997 by one of the original builders (now retired). Originally a pure racer, these boats were built with spruce frames and 1/4" ply decks and topsides to save weight, and flat bottoms for optimal speed. The driver kneeled in the cockpit and moved his weight fore and aft to trim the boat. This version is built with mahogany frames, a 1/2" deck and an 18 gallon aluminum tank under the foredeck. Seating is provided in the front and rear cockpit and comfortably seats five adults. It also features a high tech V-hull design for a comfortable ride and excellent tracking and cornering. The 90 hp 2-stroke Yamaha is in like new condition and propels the boat at speeds up to 55 mph. Driving it is an absolute joy. This is a lightly used fresh water setup. The lightweight rig is easy to launch and retrieve; the only hold-up at the ramp is people wanting to talk to you about it. I am a professional woodworker and helped build the boat in 1997 and have owned it since. I'm moving to a smaller home and storage space will be tight.

Comments:
The marine grade Sunbrella cover was custom made and fits like a glove. It also covers the powerhead cowl with the engine in the tilted up position, which keeps it looking like new and allows trailering the boat with the cover on. Great gear storage under the foredeck and the forward seat. New battery, lower unit service (gear oil, impeller) and spark plugs. Stainless prop. 100% ready to enjoy.
