Thank you for visiting the S2 7.9 Class Website. We look forward to seeing you out on the water.

Congratulations to Fun Uncle on Winning the 2018 S2 7.9 Class Championship

If you didn't attend this year's Class Championship, you missed one fantastic regatta. The Regatta started with perfect sailing conditions on Friday, partly cloudy skies and 10-14 kts of wind. After day one, Rebel was in first place with the next 5 boats within 3 points of each other. Saturday brought heavy air with winds around 20kts. It was a wild ride with boat speeds pushing 9kts downwind. After 2 races, the Race Committee called racing for the day as the wind and seas continued to build. On Saturday night the annual banquet was held at Ford Yacht and it was tasty! Many times, the comment "This is the best buffet I've ever had" was heard. Following the banquet there was a band that rocked the rest of the evening. There was even a sighting of a Relentless crewmember in a Pac Man suit on the dance floor. As the winds were even stronger on Sunday with gusts to 35, the Race Committee decided to call off racing for the day and end the regatta. All the traveling boats were out of the water and secured by 12:00pm when the awards started. Every boat received an award and a goody bag including the coveted 3D printed model of the S2 7.9. After 5 races and big winds, Fun Uncle was the winner and the 2018 Class Champion. Many thanks to Cary Diehl and Ford Yacht for putting on one of the best CCRs ever. Also, thanks to all those on the RC boats, especially those on the mark boats. Without all of these people, this regatta would not have happened. Join us in Racine, WI in 2019.
