The S2 7.9 FK (Fixed Keel) represents a refined, performance-oriented chapter in the legacy of S2 Yachts, a builder synonymous with the transition of American craftsmanship from power to sail and back again. Designed by the renowned naval architecture firm of Graham & Schlageter, the 7.9 was conceived as a Midget Ocean Racing Club (MORC) contender that could double as a spirited weekend cruiser. While the majority of the nearly 500 hulls produced featured a retractable daggerboard-style lifting keel for trailering, the FK variant was engineered for sailors who prioritized structural simplicity, stiffness, and permanent slip mooring. Built in Holland, Michigan, under Leon Slikkers’ exacting standards, the 7.9 FK benefits from the same climate-controlled fiberglass layup processes that eventually made the company’s Tiara powerboat line a global benchmark for quality.
