When you disable the ratings it makes people think it will just be fake and not go to it and you loose A LOT of views.

[1DanielChristensen]

dude that was good; why did you disble the ratings? I'm sure that even if it started out low because of a couple negative ones it would eventually get at least 4.5 stars.

One of the best dinghies I've ever sailed. No problems up to 35kts of wind after which thing started to get a bit hairy. Brilliant in big seas. You get more out of the 505 than most other designs including all the modern stuff.

[trackend]

I had a Parker composite she was a beautiful boat to sail and planed in anything over a 3

I experimented with a flat finish below the waterline the idea being to use the waters laminer adhesion on the matt paint to act as a lubricant never really came to a conclusion but I suspect it would have worked better on boats with larger wetted surfaces

[tincoffin]

Superior to th 470?

[Gonzissimo]

470 is a good boat, but 505 is absolutely the best, more faster and funny than any other, no fear the FD, I think the 505 is the most original project.

Since 1954!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've got one... Trust in me ;)!!!

[tincoffin]

I agree

[Gonzissimo]

I'm Cheap Thrills, ITA-7364, I'm in North Sardinia. And you?

[tincoffin]

i havent sailed one for years but they are a wonderfulboat in some ways easier to sail than some slower smaller dinghies I remember.

[getplaning]

The 470 came out as a less extreme version of the 505 a few years later. The 505 came out in 1954 and the 470 came out in 1965. The 470 is really just a smaller 505. I prefer the 505 because it is very roomy compared to the 470. Amazing that a design from the 50's is still one of the fastest boats on the water.

thats a very small penis...

[freecoastersrock]

hahaha

[skidskiz]

i love 505's

the oldskool mono hull ironhorse!

[stucollett]

All you guys are retards, thats pretty good for a heavy mono-hull.

[mikear4318]

While i have to agree that it is pretty good, the 505 is anything but heavy, being only 280 pounds. It's also REALLY fast.

[oakey567]

One of the best boats ever built....

[guigui3334]

vite fait vite fait

[fjavel]

Different boats, different criteria ;-)

If you thought Hobie is "going into orbit" was "a jump" please check out "windsurfing high jump"

[charliewspringfield]

wasnt really a jump. watch the hobie 18 going into orbit in the related videos if u think this was good.

[sailmartin505]

This was a sequence from the European Championships in 1990 at Quiberon. We edited the race organisers raw footage for a 505 promotional video in the UK. Subsequently the French Assocaition have added the valued commentary.

[fjavel]

Actually, I did not know the origin of the clip, was just dekighted it had been caught. Comments by M. Buffet, the ultimate gentleman racer? I am not worthy!

[VinnieBlues19]

I think I know that vid, it was part of a tape who met a certain success for the very nice and instructive sequences, such as this one, commented by Marcel Buffet, several time 505 champion and class veteran. Good to hear his voice again !

[missatgess]

good jump
