1984 S2 9.1m For Sale

The M-43 is an excellent racer/cruiser with a proven history. She is a great boat for one-design racing and weekends aboard. Complete turnkey package that is ready to go; just launch, untie the lines, and get started this Spring.

This is a competitive, freshwater 1984 racer/cruiser, built in Holland, Michigan by Leon Slikkers before the company moved to power craft as Tiara Yachts.

Designed in 1983 to meet the Midget Ocean Racing Club (MORC) standards S2 9.1 established itself as a worthy competitor. With its current PHRF rating of 132, you will not find a more comfortable, capable & well thought out 30' sailboat. A big main and large overlapping headsail make this boat a weapon upwind. The large masthead symmetrical spinnaker means you can sail closer to dead downwind at speed and sail a shorter distance than many of the modern sailboats of today.

Looking for a pleasant weekend cruise this S2 9.1 meter has the most comfortable and versatile interior layout of any 30 footer you will ever see. She comfortably sleeps 7, has all you need in the galley, a private head, and plenty of headroom at 6.2.

M-43 has been successfully raced on Lake Michigan in South Haven, as well as competing in multiple long-distance overnight races on Lake Michigan, including Chicago to Mackinac.

She is ready to sail now; all you need to do is drop her in the water.
