5.5 S-1 > 5.5 KC-2 / Transfer of notes - 12.02.2009 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
Information - 15 hours ago by Matti Muoniovaara:
This boat is originally Sjöhäxa S-1, Arvid Laurin design and built by Kungsörs Båtvarv. The boat went to the US around 56 and had US-2 (Sjohaxa) sail letters.
The first Canadian original boat was Bibis II KC-13 for James Crang.

5.5 KC-2 / Original or Alias? - yesterday by Kaspar Stubenrauch:
Info on design, boatyard & owners is needed to determine, whether this boat was original Canadian or imported.
5.5 S 1 "Sjöhäxa" - photos anyone? - 18.09.2008 by Kaspar Stubenrauch
Could those having historic images of the boat please scan them and place them in this file?
Would be helpful in our search for ZZZ/003
Sold to Bermudas - 10.03.2008 by Jens Busch
Sjöhäxa was sold to Bermudas around 1955, according to a reliable source.
News on S1 - 02.03.2008 by Jens Busch
Sjöhäxa was built by Schelin at Kungsör in 1951 (not -50) for Hjalmar Frisell, KSSS. Despite Monique was built in 1950, Sjöhäxa got number S1. and Monique S2. The reason for this is unclear to me.
Frisell won the Öresundspokalen with Sjöhäxa in 1951.
Chartering a 5.5? - 09.02.2008 by Kaspar Stubenrauch

Information - 08.02.2008 by Matti Muoniovaara
Goes 1956 to the US (Sjohaxa US-2) and later to Canada.
