About the Crew of the Raven
The Crew of the Raven is a group of maritime living history explorers, researchers and reenactors focused on the exploration, naval, privateering and pirating histories of the Western European countries, their colonies in the New World and emerging America. Their goal is to preserve, promote and represent the rich maritime heritage of the 17th, 18th and early 19th Centuries with a primary emphasis on the navies of both Britain and the young United States, the explorers and founders of the Americas, the brethren of pirates who roamed the Caribbean and coast of the colonies, and the privateers of the American Revolution and War of 1812. The Crew of the Raven shares history through participation in reenactments, lectures, living history presentations, first-person interpretation and lectures.
