About the S2 110 C

Produced by S2 Yachts, a Michigan-based builder known throughout the 1970s and 1980s for crafting well-finished, performance-oriented sailboats, the 110 C represents the company's commitment to blending spirited sailing with practical comfort. S2 Yachts earned a strong reputation for quality construction and thoughtful design during their active years, and their boats remain popular on the used market among sailors who appreciate that legacy. The 110 C is a capable daysailer and coastal cruiser, well suited to sailors who want a responsive, enjoyable boat for weekend adventures and harbor sailing without sacrificing too much in the way of onboard comfort. Its proportions suggest a design aimed at accessibility, making it an appealing option for intermediate sailors or those stepping up from smaller dinghies and looking for something with a bit more versatility. While detailed specifications are limited, the boat benefits from the general hallmarks of S2 construction — solid fiberglass layup, clean lines, and a sailing character that tends toward the lively side. For buyers seeking an affordable, well-built American sailboat with a respected pedigree, the 110 C is worth a closer look.
