About the FEELING 546

Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Feeling 546 is a Ron Holland-designed cruising yacht built by Kirie in France, with production records indicating a build year of 1991. As a substantial 55.42 ft vessel with a displacement of 39683.0 lb, it represents a specific era of European cruiser construction.

Best for:
This boat suits experienced coastal cruisers and those seeking a spacious, heavy-displacement cutter layout, though prospective buyers should be prepared for potential maintenance demands on the propulsion and steering systems.
Bluewater capability:
With a displacement of 39683.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 2.01, the boat exhibits strong offshore stability and seakeeping potential, though its bluewater readiness is contingent on the condition of its critical steering components.
Comparables:
Comparable boats from this era include other Ron Holland designs like the Hallberg-Rassy 42 or the Hallberg-Rassy 46, which share similar heavy displacement characteristics and cruising-oriented hull forms.
