Having owned a Raven 1 and II ... A two is the better option ...added safety of more power and no carb ice issues ...especially in Ireland . Rusting is a big issue ..our II start rusting within 3 years of being brand new . Wash it down after every flight ..a quick hose down works. They rust around the landing lights, rivet line along the roof and on the underside of the rear hortz stabilizer fin . Just flying in damp air in a maritime environment puts fine particles of salt onto the body work. We now CRC the baldes and hose it down every day it flies
