Some people had one at our former marina and it was a great boat...pointed
high for a center cockpit and was pretty fast...S-2's were built in Holland,
MI and were custom built for the past 15 years or so...I believe they are
Tiara Yachts now..or Tiara bought out their facility....S-2's are nice
boats...way above the quality of Catalina's or Hunters...

A ladyfriend of mine who shall remain nameless is looking at a 1981 36' S2
Center Cockpit cruiser.

One can be seen he www.sailorswarf.com

Does anybody have any experience, good or bad, with this model S2 or
S2's in general. I have heard they are middle-of-the-road as far as
quality. Better than a Hunter but worse than a Pearson, for example.

Are there any known issues when used as a coastal cruiser?

Thanks, I'm getting some good feedback - better boat than I thougt.

Maybe me and LP will have to go check out the one at St. Pete. She
says there's no way she'll ever be able to stand a crummy little
yellow boat with mauve cushions . . .
