This Feeling 1090 comes to the market at a very reasonable rate, the Vessel is well looked after and has benefitted from recent internal upholstery. The current owner has enjoyed longer passages from Spain to Belgium well as weekend sailing, so has a life raft and comprehensive tools onboard for safety and peace of mind afloat.
This Kirrie yachts Built 1090 is a good stable family cruiser, and with her running backstays with removable inner forestay and storm jib gybe preventers and good sail wardrobe she can stretch her legs for the cruiser racer too
The owner has revarnished the holly & teaksole floorboards last winter , with the new interior this year she makes a very appealing first impression.
Boarding over the side rails or from the sugar scoop you find a well thought out ship.
