BOATS FOR SALE
=====================================

SOLD!!SOLD!!SOLD - S2-7.9 Hull No. 487, For sale 1986 S2-7.9 Hull No 487, one owner, freshwater boat, covered in winter. Galvanized trailer with new tires (2008), new bunkers (2007) and rebuilt brakes (2011). 8 HP, 4 cycle Honda outboard, new 2000. Bottom of boat was coated with InterProtect when new and has had regular applications of VC-17. Comes with original UK suit of sails still in useable condition for cruising, North loose footed main (1990), North 3DL #1 (1999 – used less than a dozen times) and North ½ oz spinnaker (2001 – used 3 times). Boat was successfully raced in PHRF fleets on Lake George and Lake Champlain, but we stopped racing in 2001, shortly after buying the new #1 and spinnaker. Now we only cruise, and as we get older, want more room and creature comforts – although we are still reluctant to give up the great handling qualities of the 7.9. Electronics include SiTex knot log & race timer, Navico Depth, Autohelm 1000, dual Suunto racing compasses and VHF radio. Boat comes complete with gin pole for mast raising, winter cover, Achilles dingy, life preservers, cushions, anchor, rode, fenders, propane grill etc. Boat is in excellent condition. Asking $16,000 - contact Tom Nace e-mail tnace@roadrunner.com> or call 518-796-1173 anytime.

For Sale S2-7.9 Hull No. 160, Lightly used Grand Slam, inboard (BMW D7) with trailer. This boat has not been in the water for over twelve years (stored inside at Betsie Bay Marina). I brought her home this spring (Highland MI) after having the trailer overhauled, new tires, brakes, master cylinder, seals, bearings, and chains. The bottom is VC-17 over VC-TAR. The hull is Regatta Blue Interthane Plus. This boat has always sailed in the Great Lakes. I did one year in Erie, three years in St Clair (where I learned I'm not a racer), then hauled it to DeTour Michigan to do the North Channel. I then took her to Betsie Bay where I became a salmon fisherman until Lake Michigan went shallow and I put her inside. In the meanwhile I bought a trawler which has kept me busier than I need to be. She has all the original equipment (never lost a spinnaker sheet!) plus: optional opening ports, stern rail, saloon table, radio, depth sounder/fishfinder/anchor alarm, autohelm, daggerboard ratio upgrade, aluminum billet rudder cheeks, cushion fiddles laminated with stainless steel and drilled to fit as back-up tiller, radar reflector, swim ladder, mast hoist crutch, etc. I will sell this near concours 7.9 for $18,000.

S2 Rudder Repair
When I owned ser#46, I repaired, refinished, and in the process, upgraded the rudder to resist wear. I'm about to start the same process with several rudders at once. If you would like to have a better appearing and functioning rudder in time for the coming season, and live within range of the Twin Cities, email or call me for a quote.
