S2 7.9 Meter Class Association

4 1/2" should work.

Carey, Nashville Equalizer is a very fun event. Percy Priest “lake” is located about 10 minutes east of the Nashville airport and about 20-25 minutes from downtown Nashville. There are a lot of hotels near by, because of the airport and these are all nice. We generally stay at the Holiday Inn Expres...

Marty,
Where are you located in SE Michigan?

Try adding penetrating oil in from the open-end (the mast end) of the spreader and keep it vertical for at least a week. Also a little heat (propane torch) can help break the bolts free, but be very careful not to over heat and make sure you drain all of the penetrating oil out of spreader first. I ...

As of 12/6,we currently have 5 boats registered for St. Pete NOOD regatta, and expecting at least another 5-7 boats to register. If you have not registered yet, please follow the link on the home page of the S2 7.9 website and register for the regatta. We plan on having a class together one night af...

Rebel plans on attending.

Let's try this again for 2017 Annapolis NOOD Regatta. With a little under two months to the event (May 5-7, 2017), we have 3 boats registered. Hopefully we can get enough boats interested to get a class. If you haven't been to Annaoplis before, it is a great venue. Historic Annapolis, home of the Na...

2017 Racing Schedule is just around the corner, first stop is St. Pete NOOD February 17 -19. Last year we had 8 boats, great racing and beautiful conditions. Once again, for the 10th time in the past 12 years, Rebel will be making the trip south. Who is planning on attending this years edition?? Reg...

Looks like we will have a good turn out again in Grosse Ilse. 8 boats registered so far. Who else is coming?? Can we break 20 for entries?? Get on-line and register. Great venue.

I am already sailing on another boat in Charleston, is the reason I don't pursue getting a class at Charleston. Secondly, I really like going to Annapolis. It is a great city, and we always have a lot of fun there. It's also a 5 hour shorter trip for me to get to Annapolis vs Charleston. Charleston ...

Who is attending 2016 Annapolis NOOD Regatta?? Rebel is planning on attending. Dates of the regatta are April 29 - May 1. Last year we had 6 boats, hopefully we can better the turn out this year.

Actually the 3 boats last year were all from out of town. 2 from Louisville and 1 from Michigan. I believe that 2 of the Louisville boats (Straight Up and Alzyk), Unborrowed (497), and Hunting Party (448) are planning on attending. I have prior commitments and can not make it this year. Hopefully th...

Rebel 496 is planning on making the trip south to St. Pete. From conversations at Nashville, I believe the following are also planning on attending: Matros, Alzyk, Straight Up, Scratch, and possibly Raised by Wolves. Who else is planning on the trip south??

I don't see why one of us northern boats can't bring the scales down to St. Pete. Generally we get a couple of boats from Michigan (hopefully more this year), the Louisville guys, and the some from Tennessee. One of us can arrange to get the scales there, and can handle the weighing.

Check out the class rules posted on the website. There is a complete section that details what can be on the boat when it is weighed. The scales that we are now using to weigh boats are very mobile, they are drive-up style in which the boat is weighed while on the trailer, and then the trailer is we...
