Today, the Sylvan brand is part of the Smoker Craft Family…” with manufacturing facilities in New Paris, Indiana. For 2013, Sylvan offers an incredible thirty models of pontoon boats from nineteen to twenty-seven feet in four series from the luxuriously appointed Mandalay series through the Signature to the more basic Mirage Cruise series to the versatile Mirage Fish series. The Mirage Cruise 8522 LZ at 23’10” long on a full 8’6” beam is the second largest in this series and offers basic but very comfortable cruising amenities and is rated for a maximum carrying capacity of twelve persons or 2200 pounds. As with all Sylvan pontoon boats, it is constructed, in Sylvan’s words, with “Exclusive Cross Channel Construction features heavy-duty hat channels double through-bolted to the deck risers. Deck and Floor features 3/4" 7-ply pressure-treated plywood through-bolted and screwed to the hat channels. Lifetime limited warranty. Spacers between the fence bottom and the deck allow water to drain easily and cut drying time in half. Fencing is foam-backed to prevent rattling and reinforced for added strength. Gate construction offers the safety of pinch-proof protectors and Posi-Lock® latches. Stainless steel safety rails are used exclusively for increased strength and reliability. Powder coated railings provide a clean look and feel.” This particular model comes standard with two, .080” gauge round pontoon “tubes.” Depending upon your cruising needs in terms of normal loading capacity, rough water boating, or speed requirements for watersports, etc, you may wish to upgrade to a third centre tube, add lifting strakes to those tubes, or go all the way with Sylvan’s Revolutionary Planing Technology (RPT) tube design with Vshaped tubes which, in Sylvan’s words, provide “increased top speed per horsepower and dramatically improved fuel efficiency.” The addition of a third tube raises the maximum horsepower rating from 150 to 200. As with all Sylvan, Starcraft, and Smoker Craft boats in the family, its boats come with a limited lifetime warranty on hull and structure plus a 6-year warranty on all components, carpet, upholstery, and electronics. All parts and labour are included in this warranty and it is transferrable to a second owner. Sylvan refers to this particular model as a “Sunbathers Delight.” “Lounge your days away on the water in the Mirage Cruise 8522 LZ. You and your friends can enjoy those days under the sun relaxing in one of four beautiful premium loungers or jump on out and use the convenient rear entry ladder to enjoy your favorite sports on the water.” And let there be no doubt that virtually every bit of floor space is dedicated to seating. It has two facing loungers in the bow section, a complete wrap-around U-shaped lounge in the stern section with a removable centre section to accommodate a centre rear gate leading to the aft deck. Amidships are the starboard side driver’s consoles and swivel helm chair with slider and armrests and a similar passenger chair opposite on the port side immediately behind the side entry gate. A bow entry gate separates the two bow lounges. The beauty of this Mirage Cruise 8522 LZ is that it comes equipped with the basic standard necessities, but you can then option it up to your heart’s content with only those particular items you want from a very long and complete list of possibilities. Let’s explore that list. On the floor, 22-oz. sculptured carpet is standard or you can opt for 28-oz. carpet or vinyl flooring with or without snap-in carpet. A custom molded helm console with windscreen and basic gauges are standard and you can add a full complement of gauges such as speedometer, volt meter, trim, depth gauges and hydraulic steering too. Stereo and docking lights are standard and add underwater, under deck, and floor lighting. A change room is standard and add the porta potti. Tables with two floor bases are standard; add a second table and floor base. Bimini tops are standard and add a full complement of canvas options. Rear entry boarding ladders is standard, but choose to add a swim platform or you may even choose a The Sylvan Mirage 8522 comes in two different versions, with only slight changes to the layout differentiating between the CR and LZ versions. Our time onboard the LZ version showed her to be a comfortable boat in brisk chop and forgiving in sloppy conditions generated by 20 mph winds. It is not often we test boats in winds that high but with her Revolutionary Planing Technology (RPT) tubes we stayed comfortable and dry at speed.Key FeaturesCustom molded consoleFuel gaugeTachometerWindscreenAll aluminum transom with lifetime warranty22 oz sculptured carpet3/4" plywood deck with lifetime warrantyHelm chair with swivel, slide and armrestsLounge arm change roomAM/FM stereo with auxiliary port for MP3 player8'6'' Bimini topSpecificationsSylvan Mirage 8522 LZ (2013-) SpecificationsLength Overall23' 10'' 7.26 mDry Weight2,295 lbs. 1,041 kgBeam8' 6'' 2.59 mTested WeightN/ADraftN/AFuel Cap30 gal. 114 LDeadrise/TransomN/AWater CapnoneMax HeadroomopenBridge ClearanceN/APrices, features, designs, and equipment are subject to change.

Power1 x 150-hp Evinrude E-TEC 150 Sylvan Mirage 8522 LZ (2013-) Captain's Report By Capt. Steve-- Mission Statement The mission of the Sylvan Mirage 8522 LZ is to provide a comfortable and luxurious pontoon boat at a cost-efficient price point. She's offered in two versions, with slight modifications to the seating layout differentiating between the two. With her RPT toon design she gets on plane fast which should appeal to watersports enthusiasts. The Sylvan Mirage 8522 LZ. The Sylvan Mirage is an open and inviting boat with a comfortable layout. Distinguishing Features • Four Admiral’s Chairs. These chairs are as comfortable as can be because they swivel and even recline. The armrests are self leveling. Some boats have one or two, but we rarely see four. • Painted Fencing. We typically see panels that are fixed with decals to add highlights. These are actually painted and offered in a choice of four colors. • All Aluminum Transom. This is a departure from the extended pressure-treated wood platforms, mostly covered in carpet, that we normally see. • Standard Docking Lights. There are few things in boating more restful than a sunset cruise on an inland lake in the summer. And its nice to see the approaching dock when coming home. • RPT Tubes. Sylvan calls this Revolutionary Planing Technology and it not only offers quicker times to plane, but the Mirage gets up on plane from a level attitude. The tubes also have a 20-degree deadrise to a hard chine on both sides of the toon, much like a deep-V monohull or the pontoons on a sea planes, which usually have a 24-degree deadrise. • 6-Year Warranty. Sylvan offers a 6-year warranty on all components from stem to stern. Its toons and marine plywood deck are warranted for a lifetime and are transferrable to a second owner, according to the company. Even on our choppy test day, the Mirage manages to keep the spray down low providing a dry ride. Tube Construction Pontoon construction is moving more and more into an advanced area providing boats with more sportboat-like characteristics. The design team at Sylvan call their design RPT for Revolutionary Planing Technology and they seem to have an interesting, and effective take on how it's done. The tubes are 25” (63.5 cm) across with flat sides. The bottom takes on the contour of a V-hull sportboat with flat chines and, what could accurately be described as a 20-degree deadrise bottom. There's even a keel at the bottom to aid in tracking. The bottoms of the tubes are reminiscent of a V-hull boat, complete with chines and keel. The engine mounting pod is even more characteristic of a boat hull with a vertical stem and sharp entry and a bottom that gets lower as the design moves aft. There are even two planing fins with beveled outer edges mounted to the sides. Lifting strakes are added to the front of the tubes. The pod unit that the engine is mounted to has a descending keel, lifting wings and a sharp entry. There is nothing on the market quite like it. The tubes are two piece with a single seam down the center. Tubes are mounted to the deck with “M” brackets for solid support. The corners of the deck are protected with a stainless guard to absorb impact against the dock. Each has non-skid for boarding as well. Performance The Sylvan Mirage 8522 LZ has a LOA of 23'10" (7.26 m) and a beam of 8'6" (2.59 m). With an empty weight of 2,295 lbs.(1,041 kg), 30 gallons (113.6 L) of fuel, two people and test power on board we had a test weight of 3,313 lbs. (1,503 kg). With a 150-hp Evinrude E-TEC turning a 15 5/8 x 13" SSP prop we reached a top speed of 5650 rpm of 34.9 mph. At that speed fuel burn was 15.7 gph giving us a range of 60 miles. She doesn't really have a best planing speed so users can determine for themselves whether they want to go far or fast. With that said, I found her to be most comfortable at 3500 rpm and 20.5 mph. That produced a fuel burn of 6.3 gph which the Sylvan Mirage could keep up for 4 hours and 18 min. and 88 miles. Hole-Shot Wizard. Thanks to the RPT tubes and her 2-stroke Evinrude E-TEC power we reached planing speed in only 2.6 seconds, accelerated through 20 mph in 3.4 seconds and 30 mph in 6.2 seconds. These are remarkable times for what is essentially a twin-toon boat. Handling The 8522 LZ seems to come up on plane from a level attitude thanks to the wings mounted from the sides of the extended engine pod. Engine trim seems to have little to no effect as I noticed no difference in the spray coming from the sides of the boat or in the speed as we cruised along the lake. We put her through a fairly punishing test amid chop generated by 20 mile-an-hour winds. Testing in these kinds of conditions can bring out the worst in a pontoon boat. They can hobby horse or drench the passengers aboard. Happily, the Mirage 8522 performed well. The ride was surprisingly dry and while we did experience some hard bumps, it was nothing more than what was to be expected when running nearly 35 mph into consecutive speed bumps in the face of 20-mph winds. (The apparent wind was 55 mph.) With the two tubes being spaced well apart, I did notice some flexing of the foredeck, but again nothing more than expected on a twin-tube design. When turning I noticed that she tends to lean to the outside of the turns roughly 4 ½- degrees. This is the nature of virtually all twin-toon pontoon boats, and the Mirage 8522 LZ is no exception. FYI -- catamaran powerboats do the same thing, and it is just the nature of the design. The Comfort Factor. As noted above, the RPT hulls are not round, but rather have a 20-degree deadrise. Just as in monohulls, where a 20 to 24-degree deadrise is molded into the bottom to make the boat more comfortable at high speed in a wicked chop, so, too, does the Mirage 8522 LZ have a 20-degree deadrise in each of its toons for the same reason. And while I have no gauge to measure it, the seat of pants tells me that this boat was more comfortable barreling through the chop than conventional twin toons. For years we have tried getting video on all sorts of boats in choppy conditions, but the camera is all over the place and no one could watch the video, nor would it mean anything. That's why we shoot in flat water, as we did for this test in the lee of a peninsula. When it comes to ride, readers will just have to take my word for it. While this may look like a turn to starboard it is actually a turn to port and it shows how the Sylvan Mirage has a slight lean to the outboard side of the turn. This is something virtually all twin toons do. Here’s another view of the outboard turning characteristic. This was shot during a turn to starboard. Features Walkthrough Forward Deck A boarding gate at the bow leads to roomy bow seating that features three admiral’s chairs to the port side and a wraparound lounge to the starboard side just ahead of the helm. One of the two pedestal bases for the single standard pedestal table is mounted in the center of the foredeck. All seating is as comfortable as I've ever felt on any pontoon boat and the admiral’s chairs swivel and recline. An insulated cooler with drink holders lies between the two forward seats. It’s hard to picture a more welcoming gathering area in the bow of the Sylvan Mirage. Stainless steel speaker grills and drink holders are nestled into the seatback. Storage is under the seats and under the chaise seatback ensuring that all usable space has a purpose. Helm The helm of the Sylvan Mirage is an excellent example of elegant simplicity. The console is a beige tone to reduce glare and faux wood panels are recessed into tan vinyl. White-faced gauges with chrome bezels are to either side of the leather wrapped three-spoke wheel. A door to the side of the helm console allows access to the storage beneath. Directly across the helm is a portside boarding gate. The helm is in close proximity to both the fore and aft gathering areas keeping the captain in the center of the conversation. The faux wood panels have a classy look and white gauges with chrome bezels provide an eye-catching contrast. Always with pontoon boats the control is at nearly a 45-degree angle... even here, when a separate mounting point is molded into the console. The lower panel curves around the inside of the console and Sylvan created an MP3 holder next to the jack and 12V power outlet. Stern The stern of our test boat featured wraparound seating with three of the seats having drink holders embedded into the seatbacks. The seats to both sides also had stainless steel grilles mounted to the speakers. The forward ends of the seats are 2’ 4 ½” (.71m) across and the seats themselves are 3'5" (1.05 m) across. The corner seats had a battery to one side and a steering pump underneath the cushion to the other side. The remaining seats all have the usual accommodations for storage underneath. Yet another admiral’s chair lies across from the helm allowing the same vantage point that the captain enjoys. The center stern seat is removable allowing access to the aft boarding gate. Notice the optional teak-grain vinyl decking. The reboarding ladder is to starboard and the hinge point is nearly at the water level. The center-aft seat is removable allowing access to the stern gate and the swim platform. The seat can also be relocated to the bow to increase the seating in that area. The swim platform on our test boat was covered with the optional teak grain vinyl flooring. A reboarding ladder was secured to the starboard side but with its hinge point being so low to the water I found it difficult to retract from the deployed position. The Bimini support is made from BB square channel and the all-around nav light is mounted to the top. Observations My overall impression of the Sylvan Mirage is that she presents a very comfortable and functional entertaining platform with versatile seating that is among the most comfortable on any pontoon boat I have ever tested. By putting four admiral's seats on the Mirage 8522, everyone can be a grand pooh bah at least for some of the cruise. Don't snicker -- it's a great feeling and guests will love it. Her handling characteristics and hole shot times also make her an excellent watersports platform so feel free to bring the kids along on the next waterborne adventure. With a time to plane even oldsters will be able to get up on skis without much trouble. And that, together with her comfortable ride are this boat's strong suits. For those looking for even faster WOT speeds we suggest consideration of one of Sylvan's tri-toon hulls. Tri-toons are generally faster than twin toons. The Mirage 8522 is somewhat in the middle because of its centerline RPT engine pod that undoubtedly aids her time to plane and top speed of 34.9 mph top speed.

Here is a Review from "Practical Sailor" S2 8.5 MeterThe 8.5 is good for cruising the coasts in comfort and style--as long as you like the modern look.When Leon Slikkers founded S2 Yachts in 1973, much of the attention to detail that had previously characterized Slickcraft powerboats—Slikkers’ earlier boatbuilding venture— traveled with him to the new boatbuilding company. In the 13 years S2 sailboats were in production (S2 still makes powerboats), the company produced a variety of modern cruising designs from the board of Arthur Edmunds, all characterized by longish fin keels, freestanding spade rudders, straight sheerlines, and a staggering variety of draft options and cockpit locations. In the early ’80s, S2 reached more for the performance market with the Grand Slam series of small boats, and the 10.3 “offshore racer-cruiser.” These higher performance boats were designed by Scott Graham and Eric Schlageter, well known for their MORC and smaller IOR designs.The S2 8.5 is a 28-footer cast in the company’s traditional mold. Her hull dimensions, sail area, displacement, and general design characteristics put her square in the middle of the modern 28-footers such as the Tanzer 8.5, Newport 28, O’Day 28, and the Pearson 28.The boat’s styling is conventionally modern. She has a fairly straight sheer, fairly high freeboard, and low, raked cabin trunk with dark tinted flush ports. Production of the 8.5 ran from 1981 to 1983. The boat was replaced by the similar S2 8.6, which continued until S2 stopped making sailboats in 1986.ConstructionThe hull of the S2 8.5 is a solid hand layup. Glasswork is excellent, and is noted by owners as one of the main considerations in buying the boat. Gelcoat quality is excellent.Slight roving printthrough is evident, but it is not objectionable. Minor hard spots are visible in the topsides, probably caused by the attachment of interior furniture and bulkheads.The deck molding is cored with end grain balsa, giving a solid feel underfoot as well as providing reasonable insulating properties.S2’s hull-to-deck joint is the basic type that we would like to see adopted throughout the industry. The hull molding has an inward-turning flange, onto which the deck molding is dropped. The joint is bedded in flexible sealant, and through bolted on six inch intervals by bolts passing through the full length slotted aluminum toerail. The joint is also through bolted across the stem.All deck hardware is properly through bolted, although pulpits, cleats, and winches merely use nuts and washers on the underside of the deck, rather than the aluminum or stainless steel backing plates we prefer.Another feature of the hull-to-deck joint is a heavy, semi-rigid vinyl rubrail at the sheerline, quite aptly termed a “crash rubrail” by S2. This will go a long way toward absorbing the shock of the inevitable encounters with docks and the other hard objects that seem to be attracted to the topsides of the typical sailboat. Although this rail is black when the boat is new, it had dulled to a chalky gray on older S2’s we examined.The builder advertises “bronze seacocks on all through hull fittings.” These are not traditional tapered plug seacocks, but are ball valves mounted directly to through hull fittings. A proper seacock—whether it uses a ball valve or a tapered plug—has a heavy flange to allow through bolting to the hull. This is an important safety feature. Should a valve seize, it may become necessary to apply a great deal of leverage to the handle in order to open or close the valve. The deeply threaded through hull stem can easily break under these conditions, and more than one boat has been lost in this manner.We also suggest that seacocks be installed on the cockpit drain scuppers and the bilge pump outlet, both of which may be under water while the boat is sailing. Light air performance would benefit by the fairing in of the through hull fittings, particularly the head intake and discharge, both of which are far enough forward to have a significant effect on water flow past the hull.Ballast is a 3,000 pound lead casting, epoxied inside a hollow keel shell. We prefer an external lead casting bolted to the hull for its shock-absorbing qualities and ease of repair. This preference was reinforced recently when we examined an old Bristol 27 just sold by a friend. The surveyor noticed dampness near the bottom of the leading edge of the keel, which showed slight external damage. Probing the loose putty revealed some abrasion of the glass keel molding. In order to sell the boat, it was necessary to grind away a large portion of the glass at the front of the keel, dry out the ballast, and reglass the lead—a job that took several days of work and cost our friend a fair chunk of money.Much of the boat’s interior structure is plywood, glassed to the hull. Fillet bonding is neat and workmanlike with no rough edges to be found.Chainplates are conventional stainless steel flat bar, bolted to bulkheads and plywood gussets in the main cabin. These are properly backed with stainless steel pads. Due to the fact that the hull is lined throughout with a carpet-like synthetic material, it is not possible to examine the bonding of the chainplate knees to the hull. The stemhead fitting is a stainless steel weldment, through bolted to the deck and hull and reinforced inside the hull with a stainless steel gusset to prevent deflection of the deck from the pull aft of the headstay. We’d like to see a metal backup pad behind this fitting rather than the washers which are used.General construction is thoughtful and well executed, with excellent glasswork, a strong and simple hull-to-deck joint, and reasonably installed hardware and fittings.Handling Under PowerAlthough some early models of the 8.5 used a seven horsepower BMW diesel, the 1982 version employs an eight horsepower Yanmar. These small Yanmars are quite impressive, light in weight and far smoother than the company’s older rockcrushers.Because of the high freeboard and considerable windage of the 8.5, the standard engine is the absolute minimum power plant for the boat. Recognizing this fact, the company offered a 15 horsepower, two-cylinder Yanmar as an option. For another 75 pounds and $1,150, we would want this option on the boat if the ability to get places under power is a real consideration.The extra fuel consumption of the larger engine will scarcely be noticed. The 18 gallon aluminum fuel tank will probably give a range under power of over 250 miles—more than adequate for a 28 foot cruising boat.The fuel tank is located under the cockpit and is securely mounted and properly grounded. There is an easily reached fuel shut off between the engine and tank. Unfortunately, the fuel fill is located in the cockpit sole. Spilled diesel oil turns even the best fiberglass nonskid into an ice skating rink. Fuel fills should be located on deck, where spills can be efficiently washed away.Engine access is via a large removable panel on the inboard face of the quarterberth. This panel lacks any kind of handhold to make it easily removable, which will discourage regular checking of the engine oil. The top companionway step also removes for access, but it’s a long reach to the dipstick.There is no oil pan under the engine. It will be necessary to be very careful when changing oil to keep the bilge clean. We have yet to see anyone change oil and filters on a boat engine without spilling something.With the quarterberth panel removed, access for routine service is excellent. The quarterberth has remarkable headroom over, so that the mechanic will not feel like a trapped spelunker after a half hour of work. Engine removal will require some joinerwork disassembly.Handling Under SailThe S2 8.5 is no slug under sail. Her PHRF rating of 174 to 180 compares very favorably to other boats of her size and type. The Sabre 28, for example, has a rating of 198. The Pearson 28 about 195, and the O’Day 28 about 198.Part of this is no doubt due to the fact that the standard sails on the boat come from the North loft. While North’s OEM sails may not be the vertical cut Mylar-Kevlar wonders that adorn custom boats, they’re a lot better than most.S2 now uses Hall spars. The simple masthead rig is extremely clean, with airfoil spreaders and internal tangs. The boom features an internal outhaul and provision for two internally-led reefing lines, with cam cleats at the forward end of the boom.The deck-stepped mast is mounted in a stainless steel deck plate incorporating plenty of holes for the attachment of blocks. Halyards and Cunningham lead aft along the cabin house top to a pair of Lewmar #8 winches. Lewmar #16s are optional, but hardly necessary.The main is controlled by a six-part Harken rig mounted on the end of the boom, and a Kenyon traveler mounted on the aft cockpit coaming. This will work fine with the tiller-steered version of the boat. With wheel steering, the mainsheet is likely to be a nuisance to the helmsman.Because of the end-of-boom sheeting, a boom vang will be essential for full mainsail control. Ironically, the boat’s drawings show almost mid-boom sheeting, with the traveler mounted on the bridgedeck at the forward end of the cockpit. This is probably a better arrangement, although it heavily loads the center of the boom and requires more sheeting force.Owners of 8.5s have little but praise for the interior of the boat. The cabin has a wide feeling, created by pushing everything outboard. The “chart area” on the plan is a myth, as far as we can tell.Despite the fact that the shrouds are set well in from the rail, the boat lacks inboard headsail tracks. Rather, you are limited to snatch blocks shackled to the toerail track. A six-foot piece of track set inboard of the rail would be a useful addition.Standard headsail sheet winches are two-speed Lewmar #30s. Options include both larger winches and self-tailers, both of which are worth considering for either racing or cruising. The cockpit coamings are wide enough for mounting larger primaries and secondaries.The high-quality rig and sails add to the price of the S2, but they are additions well worth the cost.Deck LayoutThe deck layout of the 8.5 is clean and functional, with no toe stubbers to catch you unawares. There are two foredeck mooring cleats, but no bow chocks. The necessity to lead an anchor line well off the boat’s centerline, coupled with high freeboard forward, is likely to result in a boat which sails around on her anchor or mooring. The 8.5 has a pair of wide stainless steel chafing strips at the bow which will greatly protect the deck from the chafe of the anchor line.The 8.5’s foredeck anchor well is one of the best we’ve seen. It is shallow—just deep enough to hold an anchor and adequate rode. There are double scuppers, which offer less likelihood of clogging. The lid is held on by a full-length piano hinge, and there is a positive latch.The shallow locker well above the waterline means that water is less likely to enter through the scuppers, which can be a real problem with a deep anchor well. When the bow pitches into waves, a deep anchor well can fill with water, and if the scuppers clog with debris, you can find yourself sailing around with several hundred pounds of extra weight in the worst possible position. There is no provision for securing the bitter end of the anchor rode, but a big galvanized eyebolt installed in the well by the owner will solve that one.The running lights leave something to be desired. Their location at deck level just aft of the stem makes them vulnerable to damage when handling ground tackle. We much prefer an international style bicolor mounted on the pulpit, another two feet off the water: easier to see, and out of the way. Wiring for the running lights is exposed in the anchor well, and should be secured out of the way.A recessed teak handrail runs the full length of the cabin trunk, serving the dual function of heavy weather handhold and cabin trim piece. Its shape makes it far easier to oil or varnish than the conventional round handrail, although the wide, flat section seems somewhat awkward after years of grabbing round rails.The 8.5’s cockpit is the maximum size we’d want to see on a boat of this size. The T-shape is designed to accommodate the optional wheel steerer, yielding a somewhat odd layout for the tiller-steered version. A bench seat spans the aft end of the cockpit. Although this makes good seating in port, we doubt that you’d want anyone sitting there under sail: too much weight in the end of the boat. It does make a natural helmsman’s seat for wheel steering.The engine controls and instrument panel are also located at the aft end of the cockpit, and are basically inaccessible to the helmsman of a tiller-steered version.There are two lifting lids in the aft cockpit bench, giving access to a cavernous space under the cockpit. To be useful, dacron bags should be fitted to the inside of these lockers. Then, they’ll be handy stowage for spare sheets and blocks.There are comfortable contoured seats along each side of the cockpit, with a huge locker under the port seat. Although plywood pen boards somewhat separate this locker from the engine space under the cockpit, it would be far too easy for deeply piled junk to get knocked over the board and into the engine. This locker should be partitioned into smaller spaces unless it is to be used exclusively as a sail locker.The battery boxes, fitted at the forward end of the locker, could benefit from plywood or fiberglass lids to keep battery acid off gear which might find its way onto the batteries. The box is designed to take two batteries—one battery is standard—stored in plastic containers. A single lid covering the whole box would be more efficient.The huge cockpit will accommodate up to six for sailing, and eight for in-port partying. The cockpit seat bottoms are contoured, and the cockpit coamings slope outboard for more comfortable seating. However, the seats are both too narrow and too short for sleeping.The forward end of the cockpit is protected by a narrow bridgedeck. However, the cockpit coatings extend a full foot above the level of the bridgedeck, To block the companionway to the level of the top of the coamings will require leaving two of the three drop boards in place when sailing.Although there is moderate taper to the sides of the companionway, making it easier to remove the drop boards, it is still necessary to lift each board about five inches before it can be removed. This is far safer than many tapered companionways, where boards practically fall out if you look at them wrong. The companionway slide is one of the best we’ve seen. It’s a contoured piece of acrylic fitted with a convenient grabrail. It slides easily in extruded aluminum channels, and is fitted with a fiberglass storm hood. As on many boats, the aft cabin bulkhead slopes forward, rendering it impossible to leave the drop boards out for ventilation when it rains.BelowdecksOwners consistently praise the interior design and finishing of S2 sailboats. From looking at the 8.5, it’s pretty easy to see why.There are no exposed interior fiberglass surfaces except the head floor pan molding. The hull and cabin overhead are lined with a carpet-like synthetic fabric. While this will undoubtedly cut down on condensation, we at first wondered how this fabric would hold up over time. Inevitably, the hull liner and even the overhead will get wet. In freshwater areas, this is no problem. The water will eventually evaporate. In salt water, however, wet fabric never seems to dry. Salt draws moisture like a magnet draws steel. Since first seeing this boat, however, we’ve had good experiences with the fabric. Be sure, however, to get a good wet-or-dry vacuum to keep it clean.Interior layout is fairly conventional, with Vberths forward, and immediately aft, a full width head. The head can be closed off from both the forward cabin and the main cabin with solid doors—a real luxury in a boat this size. There is a large hanging locker in the head, and reasonable storage space for toilet articles.The word for the main cabin is “wide,” with the settees pushed as far outboard as they can go. Décor is a little heavy on the teak for our taste, but it is one of the better coordinated interiors we have seen. S2 had a good interior decorator.A fold-down dining table seats four. When folded against the bulkhead, it is held in place by a single latch, which makes us nervous.Neither settee is full length. The foot of the port settee runs under the galley counter, making it long enough for sleeping, although your feet may feel a little claustrophobic in the tiny footwell.The starboard settee is an unusual configuration. The aftermost 12" of the settee folds up to form an arm rest, leaving a gap between the end of the settee and the head of the quarterberth.Inexplicably, this gap is referred to on the accommodation plan as a “charting area,” although there is neither a standard nor an optional chart table. It’s sort of like the designer ran out of energy before completing the interior design.Over the non-existent “charting area” is the best electrical panel we’ve seen on a 28 foot boat. The panel has a locking battery switch, battery test meter, and a panel with room for 14 circuit breakers, although only half are installed on the standard boat.The space is welcome, since with the proliferation of marine electronics most electrical panels are woefully inadequate.Most quarterberths tend to induce claustrophobia. That of the 8.5 is more likely to exacerbate any tendencies you might have to agoraphobia. At last, a quarterberth which will not give you a concussion when you sit bolt upright in the middle of the night after your neighbor drags down on you in a wind shift.The standard main cabin sole is carpet-covered fiberglass. For an additional $325, teak and holly was available for the traditionalist. We’d want it. Unfortunately there is no access to the bilge in the main cabin. None. This is inexcusable, and could be dangerous. A few hours with a saber saw should solve this rather basic problem.The galley is workable and accessible, with no awkward posturing required to do the dishes. The sink gets an A+. It is a full nine inches deep, is large enough to take a frying pan, and mounted close to the centerline.In contrast, the icebox gets a C-. It is larger than normal on a boat of this size, but it drains to the bilge, has a poorly insulated top, and a tiny, uninsulated hatch without a trace of a gasket. Boo.Because of limited counter space, the two burner Kenyon alcohol stove is mounted athwartships, rather than fore and aft. This means that the stove cannot be gimballed, and that it is necessary to reach across the inboard burner to reach the outboard one. Given the fact that countertop gimballed stoves are usually dangerous, the lack of gimballing doesn’t bother us much. What does bother us is that if you want to upgrade the stove to something more functional, the limited space allocated will stretch your ingenuity.A fold down table at the end of the galley counter gives additional counter space, but it must be left up in order to use the port settee for sleeping.Roominess, excellent execution, and good color coordination are trademarks of the interiors of all S2s, and the 8.5 fits well into this enviable tradition.ConclusionsThe S2 8.5 is a good boat for cruising the Great Lakes or any coast in comfort and a certain amount of style. Her appearance may be a little modern for traditionalists, with her straight sheer and European-style cabin windows.Pricey? Yes, but when you look at the things that go into the boat—the rig, good sails, and a comfortable, well finished interior—the price may seem a bit less painful. You still pay for what you get.

Also, featuring a Corsa port and starboard performance exhaust system that can be turned on or off. Just this feature new is $15,000.00. Legit 55mph boat that gets on plane very fast. I am the original owner, and have taken very good care of this clean boat from waxing it to bow to stern. The boat has either been garaged or under two different covers for the boat, one a bikini top and the other a $1100.00 custom made hunter green Sunbrella cover that matches the boat. The boat has a custom made wake board tower installed by the dealer with a permanent T-Top made inside the tower with black canvas cover. It is very quality and heavy duty. Must see the entire boat to truly appreciate. The interior is in great shape and all pics were taken September 2014--what you see in pics is what you get. 6 speaker Clarion stereo w/CD. Has a head with a porta potty. A GPS made by Garmin 400 model- 2010. Two bolster seats that raise up and down and front to back. All of the interior is like new, along with the cover hood over the motor. Exterior of boat has a few marks/scratches as most 14 year old boats will and in no way affect boat performance.

Since I purchased new in Spartanburg, SC it has been used in the Lake Hartwell and freshwater lakes mainly. Boat has been trailered in and out of the lake, wiped down after each use and not docked in the lake, but kept on a hydrohoist air lift boathouse. As the pics show, the hull is shiny and in fantastic shape. I have taken extreme pride in ownership and great care of this boat. I don't have any sentimental attachment to the boat so feel free to make any REASONABLE OFFER as I have title in hand and am ready to give you the keys to your 'new' used boat .Asking price is $23,000 OBO.
