Welcome to my site. I took delivery of my Hydrovisions Raptor 16 Expedition outrigger sailing canoe, the only one in the UK, in August 2006.
Please contact me if you have any problems or comments on the site. I'd welcome any feedback.

*** SPECIAL NOTICE ***
July 2009 - Hydrovisions have ceased production of the Raptor. I wrote a short review of the craft.
