The CSY 505 is one of the rarest and most distinct entries in the lineage of Caribbean Sailing Yachts (CSY). While the manufacturer is most famous for its "overbuilt" charter fleet of the late 1970s—primarily the Peter Schmittdesigned CSY 44 and 37—the 505 represents a lateera evolution. Introduced around 1987, well after the original CSY corporation faced financial restructuring, the 505 moved away from the heavydisplacement "tank" philosophy of its predecessors. Designed by the prolific Charles Morgan, the CSY 505 was conceived as a more performanceoriented, moderatedisplacement cruiser that sought to blend the brand’s reputation for structural integrity with a more modern, slippery hull form and a masthead sloop rig.
