S2 7.0 Meter
Description
The S2 7.0 (also known as the S2 7.0 Meter) is an American trailerable sailboat designed by Arthur Edmunds as a compact cruiser, built by S2 Yachts in Holland, Michigan; it was introduced in 1975 and produced through the late 1970s or early 1980s, with approximately 140 units constructed as one of the early models in S2's lineup emphasizing solid fiberglass construction, trailerability, and family-friendly cruising rather than high-performance racing. The fiberglass monohull features a masthead sloop rig, keel/centerboard configuration for shallow draft versatility when trailering or gunkholing, transom-hung rudder, and a practical interior with berths for four (V-berth forward, convertible settees in the saloon), small galley area, enclosed head compartment, and adequate storage, making it suitable for daysailing, weekend cruising, or light coastal use; owners appreciate its sturdy build quality, easy handling, stability from the ballast and moderate displacement, and classic lines with a reputation for reliability and good light-air performance from its generous sail area.
