S2 7.9 Meter Class Association

I've read several posts on this forum. Since I cannot replace the broken latch handles; I hope to find a replacement hatch. I measured the Taylormade original hatch at 16 3/4" x 16 3/4" internal. This Plastimo (Size 40 Ref: 63887) seems to be close, Has anyone tried it ? Or another replace...

I have #480 Gris-Gris (formerly Runaway at Privateer YC). Purchased June 22, 2009. The only 7.9 on Lake Wheeler, AL (berthed at Joe Wheeler State Park Marina). I understand that Gordon Trowbridge sold #479 Slo-Motion; so no 7.9 on Lake Guntersville. And Horace Holland hasn't had a 7.9 on Lake Wilson...

I bought a new trailer from Triad Trailers in Raleigh, NC (formerly in Conn). I'd measured a custom trailer owned by a fellow 7.9 sailor in Nashville as the basis. I highly recommend Triad. Mike Orro will work with you to build exactly what you what. Now he has good measurements to use. We made a fe...

The boatyard just cut out the mast step fiberglass without making a template.
I need one if anyone has it.
Or at least measurements relative to the keel well to the SS mast step bolts, or the mast pivot slot.
Anyone got the data?
Thanks,
Ron
PS -Alas, the joys of a newbie....

What's the best way to clean the original cushions on my 1986 #480 (tan with blue crosshatch) ?
They are in surprisingly good shape, except that several have lost their zipper slider.
What kind of material is it anyway?

yessir !

Where is the S2 7.9 CG?
- fore/aft (relative to the daggerboard)?
- vertically (relative to the waterline or bottom)?

I need the info to compute the tongue weight for my new trailer.

The immediate need is for the trailer manufacturer. Since he is 500 miles from the boat, he wants some accurate data for bunk placement, center of gravity (tongue weight), bow support, etc.
For me, I'd frame it and put it on the wall.

Thanks Tim.
I have the owners manual - a copy of a copy of copy..... And I want a clean drawing like on page three.
I may have mis-spoke. I am actually looking for a underbody line drawing, showing the dimensions of the hull shape.

I've seen a hull line drawing for a S2 9.1
Does anyone have an accurate, large scale line drawing the 7.9 ?

Thanks. I'm not much of a woodworker, as evidenced by my "C" in junior high woodshop. H&L quoted me about $95 based on my guestimated dimensions. My son made some actual tiller measurements of the (broken) tiller on the boat, I wanted to confirm these before ordering from H&L: base...

Anyone have the tiller drawing? I think that it is B-251?? Or the dimensions?
H&L Marine Woodworks no longer has the info to replace my S2 7.9 tiller.

I just bought #480 in Chatanooga, TN.

I need to purchase a new or used trailer to bring her home to Alabama.

Please call me ASAP at 256-679-1943 or email at ronmatthews@knology.net if you can help me out.

Thanks
Ron
