McTavish Tracker (Volan) - Single Fin, Hand-Laid Premium Volan Construction. A classic McTavish Tracker-style template updated in True Ames' Volan build, using hand-laid 44-layer panels with optimal weave orientation for dialed-in flex. The medium base and raked outline provide drive and projection for powerful, down-the-line surfing, while the Volan construction lets the fin flex from the body and spring back to center.

Fin Construction: Volan
Designer Name: Bob McTavish (Robert M. McTavish)
