The owner bought this boat in 2007
General condition and any additional information
This S2 has spent most of its life under a roof and is in great condition.
Sail Inventory: 2 main sails one which was purchased for racing years ago. 1 jib 1 genoa 1 asymmetric spinnaker. Also all of these sails have been packed away for 5 years away from vermin.
Standard features
The S2 6.9 22 is sloop rig, centerboard, outboard kick-up rudder, and deck stepped mast. Her hull is hand-laid fiberglass with end-grain balsa core sandwich construction. She offers a V-berth, port and starboard settee berths, galley area with ice box and work space, and a porta-potti area with cabinet/shelf. Teak cabin sole. Headroom is 46 and mast height is 320. The pocket version of the formidable 7.9, designed to match performance aspects in a reduced size. A good all-around club racer daysailer, with accommodations that make her a weekend cruiser. The proportionally large mainsail and high aspect fractional rig give her acceleration and quickness yet responsiveness and control for any sailing condition. The efficient deck layout, streamlined cabin top, and wide walkways coupled with stainless steel bow rail and lifelines assure safe passge forward. All sail controls are led aft to the self-draining cockpit which features body contoured seating for optimum crew comfort and sailing ease. Mast is easily stepped by team of two, plus kick-up rudder and vertical retracting keel offer the maximum in versatility in launching, beaching and trailing. Wide 8-foot beam assures stability and opens up a cozy cabin for four, private head area, and built-in ice box in a roomy, care-free interior perfect for the sailing family or racing crew. The assurance of S2 quality is evident in engineering, performance, craftsmanship, and attention to detail throughout. These high construction standards and the baltek core construction technique provide the consistency necessary for S2 to offer this pocket racer for one-design or handicap racing at any level.
Extra gear included
6.0 HP 4 Stroke Mercury Outboard (Low Usage, Refurbished since last usage).
Accompanied Trailer for s2.
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
S2 6.9 GRAND SLAM.
The same hull as the S2 6.7 (designed by S2 in-house designer Don Wennersten), with changes to the cabin, cockpit, and sailplan overseen by G&S.
