Design
The S2 11.0 is a recreational keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass, with a balsa-cored deck and wooden trim. It has a masthead sloop rig with aluminum spars, a raked stem, a raised counter reverse transom, an internally mounted spade-type rudder controlled by a wheel and a fixed fin keel.
The boat has a draft of {{convert|5.50|ft|m|abbr=on}} with the standard keel and {{convert|4.67|ft|m|abbr=on}} with the optional shoal draft keel.
The boat is fitted with a Universal, Volvo, Pathfinder or Yanmar diesel engine for docking and maneuvering. The fuel tank holds {{convert|70|u.s.gal}} and the fresh water tank has a capacity of {{convert|80|u.s.gal}}.

Operational history
In a 1994 review of the 11.0 C Richard Sherwood wrote, "the 11.0 C model ... has the same underwater lines as the 11.0 A. There is substantial weight and a broad beam for stability. The deep keel and rudder help track off the wind. The center cockpit has become very popular for cruisers, and the 11.0 has a big one."
