HIGH PERFORMANCE: 5o5 STYLE The Kyrwood 5o5 is a two man high performance, internaitonal one design racing dinghy, which is both lively and responsive in all wind and sea conditions.

The 5o5 concept was created in 1954 by John Westell, an Englishman, for a French boating association.

The 5o5 design gives considerable freedom in rig and construction, which has allowed it to keep pace with modern developments and is still a class as modern today as when it was first conceived.

The STANDARD KYRWOOD... is a combination of hand laid fibreglass reinforced plastic, and end grain balsa core sandwich construction achieving a stiff, light hull, combining the performance of sandwich construction with the low maintenance properties of fibreglass. The hull has balsa extending well around the bilges, forming a channel from bow to stern reducing hull distortion caused from rig loadings. Extreme panel stiffness on all planing surfaces eliminates loss of energy and lift due to hull flex.

The deck is balsa ribbed and is of a single moulding, incorporating spinnaker shute, jib furler well, mast thwart and transom, as well as a unique centerboard case thwart which resists rig compression forces. A separate centerboard case top moulding combines mast support and compass mounting. Allowance has also been made for control cleats and sheeting systems.

The EXOTIQUE KYRWOOD 5o5... is built with carbon fibre reinforcement.
