The Beneteau First 305 was designed as a lightweight Race boat with a reported hull speed of around 8.3 knots.
As well as being built for speed, the Beneteau First 305 makes a great daysailer or overnighter as well.
A V-berth forward and enclosed aft cabin means you can sleep 4 with privacy. Add in the Dinette and settee in the salon and you can sleep 6 if the occasion arises.
The galley is simple with a stove/oven, double stainless steel sink, and icebox.
And, the private head is fairly roomy and has a cool retro red-colored counter and sink.
Having been built to race dimensions, the Beneteau’s interior will seem a little cramped for those in the 6’ tall range.
With its tiller steering, the cockpit is super roomy whether you’re using the boat for weekends in the slip or out racing with friends.
A few more awesome features… - Quick Vang - Harken/North split drum furling system with twin grove luff and headstay - 12’ Spinnaker Pole & Fittings - 7 Lewmar rope clutches-all halyards and reefing systems lead to cockpit - Jib Halyard, Kevlar jib halyard, Kevlar core halyard - Martec folding prop - Raycor fuel filter

The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Ballast / Displacement * 100
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
