S2 5.5 vs O'day Daysailer- Thread starter yrral
- Start date May 26, 2015
- Forums for All Owners
- Trailer Sailors
I am debating between purchasing an S2 5.5 Grand Slam or an O'day Daysailer. I've been able to find no review of the S2 although it looks very similar to the Daysailer and about 1' longer. Does anyone have any experience with the S2 5.5? Any opinions about how they compare? Or have a look at a Boston Whaler Harpoon 5.2. I'm sure they are all similar, being 17-ish foot long open centerboard daysailers with cuddy cabins. http://www.ruach.net/Harpoon.shtml#harpoonpg Crazy Dave CondonODay has been out of business since 1989. S2 is still around but building power but not sure if they are even building sailboats now but if they are it would be the larger ones. They were considered good boats. Both boats would be 25 years old or older but in their time, both sailed very well but I would be more concerned with the condition of the hull and deck, equipment, motor and trailer. If you do not know what you are looking at, I suggest a knowledgable person to go with you. One thing, insist on the title work for the trailer and boat along with a notarized bill of sale. IF that cannot be produced, then walk away unless it was not required for the state where ownership occurs. Good example, North Carolina is a title state but older boats did not require a title. South Caroina, Tn, and other states do not require titling and registration on trailers while some states require only registration. I own an S2 5.5 and love it when I get to use it. Very stable, easy to sail and has a nice sized cockpit. As a novice, I wanted it to be easy to rig, fun to use and comfortable on the water. I found all of these in the S2. There were only about 70 hulls produced I was told and they are hard to find. Whatever you decide I hope you enjoy rsafr said: I own an S2 5.5 and love it when I get to use it.

AKA the Grand Slam 7.9 Sail area: -Main: 180 ft² / 16.72 m² -Jib: 149 ft² / 13.84 m² A few (17) were delivered with a fixed keel and masthead rig. (See S2 7.9FK for specs.) Inboard power available as an option… BMW 7.5 hp diesel.
The boat stayed in production up until S2 shut down its sailboat operations in 1986. Designed by the Chicago-based naval architects Scott Graham and Eric Schlageter, the 7.9 was the first in a series of competitive production boats. The series was originally called "Grand Slam," but the company later dropped the designation.
Sailboat • $5,000 • 1983 • S-2 7.9 Grand Slam • TIARA/S-2 YACHTS. Designed by Graham & Schlageter and built by Tiara Yachts of Holland MI, the 7.9 meter was one of the other Grand Slam series of racer/cruisers that enjoyed a great run of nearly 550 hulls starting in 1981. S-2 also had a line of family cruisers which were successful in ...
The S2 7.9, originally called the Grand Slam 7.9, is an American sailboat that was designed by Graham & Schlageter as a one-design and Midget Ocean Racing Club (MORC) racer-cruiser and first built in 1979.
The S2 6.7 Grand Slam is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Don Wennersten as a racer-cruiser and first built in 1980. The designation indicates the approximate length overall in meters. [1] [2] [3] The S2 6.7 was developed into the S2 6.9 in 1983. [4]
The S2 6.9, also marketed as the S2 6.9 Grand Slam, is an American trailerable sailboat that was designed by Don Wennersten and Graham & Schlageter as racer-cruiser and first built in 1983. The designation indicates the approximate length overall in meters. [1] [2] [3] [4]The S2 6.9 is a development of the 1980 S2 6.7. [1] [3] It was later developed into the wing keel-equipped S2 22 in 1985.
The boat was designed by Scott Graham and Eric Schlageter, principals of Chicago-based G&S naval architecture firm. The 7.9 was originally marketed as the Grand Slam, but later the name was dropped and it became the 7.9. It was built from 1982 through 1987, and again in 1990 through 1994. In total, 546 boats were built.
The history of S2 Yachts is in many ways a parable for the modern fiberglass sailboat industry. Begun in 1974 by an experienced fiberglass builder, the company grew rapidly, building first some unattractive "two-story" cruisers, followed by a series of conventional cruiser-racers in the late '70s and early '80s, then a successful fleet of race-oriented cruisers in the mid '80s.
The 7.9 was designed for S2 Yachts by Scott Graham and Eric Schlageter. The 1982 model year was introduced in late 1981 and was originally marketed as the "Grand Slam," although that designator was later dropped, and the model was simply known as the S2 7.9. It remained in production until S2 ceased production of all its models in 1986.

S2 Yachts discription:"The non-masterhead rig and sailplan is planned to give an optimal mix of easy handling and great speed.
