Hi everyone I am a new owner of the 505, I would like to replace the 25kg Delta with a 35KG ultra, has anyone done that swap, I would like to know if it fits ok on the bow .
Thanks, Vito.

I should point out I have the little mini bow-sprit and bob-stay. It think some 505s were different?

Thank you very much, do you have a picture of the Ultra on the 505. Do you think the 35KG was appropriate size and do you have any issues with the windlass and the heavier anchor.
Thanks

I don't have a pic of it specifically, but you can kinda see it in this pic. I think 35kg is perfect for a cruiser. No problems with windlass.

I have the 45KG Ultra on my 575. I think you will find it an excellent anchor. I have never had it slip, and it self launches quite well. I have a QUICK remote on the helm (as well as the Hanse provided one at the bow) and anchor single handed quite often.

I have the exact same setup as ohthetrees, and I found the upgrade very noticeable. The extra peace of mind is priceless!
