About the FEELING 55

Sailpages Buyer's Take

The Feeling 55 is a rare, large fractional sloop designed and built by Alliaura Marine, with only 7 hulls constructed between 2007 and 2012. Its scarcity and specific build window make it a unique proposition in the market, requiring buyers to rely heavily on individual vessel history due to the limited sample size for general trends.

Best for:
This vessel suits experienced owners seeking a spacious, stable cruising platform, as indicated by its high comfort ratio of 29.75 and substantial displacement of 44092.0 lb. It is best suited for those who prioritize interior volume and motion comfort over high-speed performance, given its moderate SA/D ratio of 17.32.
Bluewater capability:
With a low capsize ratio of 1.94 and a displacement of 44092.0 lb, the Feeling 55 demonstrates strong inherent stability and seaworthiness for offshore passages. Its fractional rig and variable keel options further support its capability as a capable bluewater cruiser, provided the specific keel configuration matches the intended anchoring grounds.
Comparables:
Comparable boats include the Hallberg-Rassy 54 and the Swan 54, which share similar fractional sloop rigs, heavy displacement characteristics, and a focus on bluewater cruising comfort. These models offer similar beam and length profiles, providing a benchmark for the Feeling 55's performance and layout expectations.
