Yahoo Groups 2
There are about 40 S2 27 owners, out of 85 boats, represented in this Yahoo Groups list. We have a proposal from Ryan to change the list server to groups.io, in fact Ryan already has a group set up. I became admin by default a couple years ago when the current admin sold his boat and wanted out. We can migrate this yahoo list to the new groups.io automatically which would transfer your email address and any files you have uploaded (not many) to the new server. It appears that Yahoo want's out of the business but they will keep our list active (for now) but with fewer features. I think it is time for someone else to become the list admin and perhaps move it to groups.io. If you have other ideas please reply to this message, if you don't want your information transferred to the new list then please unsubscribe or let me know. The following is what Yahoo has to say: Attention: Starting December 14, 2019 Yahoo Groups will no longer host user created content on its sites. New content can no longer be uploaded after October 28, 2019. Sending/Receiving email functionality is not going away, you can continue to communicate via any email client with your group members.

yahoo groups coming to an end! 3
I have not seen anyone in this group post about this yet. What are our plans? As of December 14 all previously posted content on the site will be permanently removed. I have payed for ($110) and created a new group on groups.io (this is what most groups are doing to save their data) It is called s227yachts (s227yachts@groups.io) TO THE GROUP OWNER OF THIS YAHOO GROUP!! Would you please be so kind as to send a group invite to transfer@groups.io and once they have joined please make them a moderator of this group (it may take up to a week). Groups.io will then COPY and transfer all group data to the new groups.io group.. They will not change anything on the page, only copy date and send invites to our current members. I will also make you the moderator of the new group if you wish. Thank you, Ryan Dirt_Detroit,Mi_Hull#3

New Owner - 1986 5
Hello, all. I just purchased a 1986 S2 27 set up in the "cruising" layout. I'll be sailing in the middle Chesapeake Bay with the boat in a slip just off the Magothy River. We delivered it to its new home today in 8-12 SSW from Back Creek in Annapolis under the Bay Bridge and into the Magothy. It was a great sail and other than the main sheeting system I am really impressed with the boat. I'm looking forward to many more sails.

Source for rudder bearings? 6
Before I launch this spring, I would like to replace the bearings (bushings) on my 27's rudder. The rudder slop when sailing downwind is pretty noticeable. Do any of you have a source for the bearings? I assume that they will simply press in. Thanks. --Dave 1987 S2 27, "Clio" Hull #80

Canvas Winter Cover? 4
Hi Folks, The S2 27 group has been very quiet, so here's a new topic to kick off 2019. Does anyone have a canvas winter cover for your boat? If so, did you have it custom made, and by which canvas company? Are you happy with the performance of your cover? I am thinking about having one made instead of paying to have the boat shrink wrapped each fall. I assume that once the canvas company makes the cover, they keep the measurements on file. Thanks, and happy new year. Dave S. s/v Clio 1987 S2 27, hull #80

Keelbolt washers
My 1987 S2 27 has mild steel washers on the keel bolts, which are pretty much totally rusted away. Anyone on this list replaced them? If so, with stainless, or again with mild steel? How big a job was it? Cheers!

Yanmar Prop 2
It's about time for a haul out for bottom paint and I have always wondered about my prop. It's a 1GM10 and the prop is a 2 blade Michigan "Sailer" 14 x 10. There is only about a 1/4 inch space between the prop and the hull? With a clean bottom and empty boat it will run about 6 - 6.5 knots at 3000 RPM. I wonder what others have with their Yanmar's, Brian you don't count:) Mark Nashville S2-27 #15

Interesting that we have 37 S2-27 owners or interested in our group, not bad for only 85 boats made 30 years ago. Mark S2-27 #15

Bushings for rudder pintles 6
The S2 27 list is pretty quiet. Here's a conversation starter. Anyone have a source for the rudder pintle bushings? My rudder is getting a bit loose, particularly when sailing downwind. I believe that they are made of nylon (delrin?) Thanks in advance. Dave S. 1987 S2 27 "Model B"

S2 27 on eBay 2
That's a crazy price. I would think you could about scrap it out for more than that. Hope it doesn't establish a new baseline for our boats.

1985 S2 27 Hull #3, bought it one year ago from original owner. Has never touched salt water. Diesel inboard, Harken roller furling for jib, Harken main traveler on cabin top, not rigged for a spinnaker but I want to add that, anyone got a spinnaker for sale? It’s also a hot rod, points high with the deep draft keel, and likes the big rollers here on the Great Lakes. Love the boat, not for sale! :-) -Doug Hoffman photo attached, just before launch a few weeks ago with new bottom paint.

S2-27 renovation with carpet headliner removed 3
A S2-27 owner on Reddit's sailing forum has posted photos of his interior carpet removal and faring of the interior fiberglass. I can't imagine how much lung clogging work this was, but the results look very nice.

Racing the S2 27 - need more speed! 6
Hello all, I club race my boat. I just got a new headsail, it is a poly laminate/mylar sail, so more high tech than Dacron. My main is still an older Dacron sail. I still got beat pretty badly last night by the competition. We race JAM against two wing keel boats (San Juan 28 and Catalina 28) and four others, a Morgan 27, Tartan 28, Ericson 32, and a J 24. Even with the new head sail all of the boats out pointed me when going to weather. We held our ground on the next leg, beam reach. Finish was downwind, we lost some more ground there, but we were so far behind we did not set our whisker pole to go wing on wing like the rest of the fleet. I am wondering what the rest of you do to make your boats go fast? Specific items I wonder about are: 1.Do you use the inside jib cars or outside tracks Jib car tracks?. I tried inside when going to weather and outside on the beam and downwind legs. 2. Jib car placement for inside/outside? My head sail is a 155%. 3. Rig tuning tensions? I could not find a specific guide, but I think in one of these posts I read the S2 7.9 tuning guide is a good reference, is this correct? Any advice/references are welcome. I understand fully that the problem could just be my crew and my own abilities :) Thanks, Joe

Yanmar 1GM10 Starting Problem 5
Hi Folks, I think that most S2 27 boats came with a Yanmar 1GM10. How many of you have the dreaded Yanmar "starting problem," that is, you turn the key, hit the button, and just get a click? Hit the button between 2 and 10 more times, and eventually, the starter is energized and the engine starts. Apparently, this is due to an undersized wiring harness. Have any of you come up with a good solution to this problem (short of changing out the entire wiring harness)? Thanks for the input. Dave S. s/v Clio 1987 S2 27, hull #80

I own #11. '85 racing model. Absolutely LOVE it. Needs a sail inventory upgrade, but she does just fine. I love the performance and comfort. They seemed to get these features spot on!
