Feeling 920

Built by French shipyard Kirie from 1981 to 1986, this Philippe Harlé-designed 31-footer represents a thoughtful approach to coastal cruising and club racing. The Feeling 920's moderate proportions and well-balanced sail plan create a versatile platform that appeals to sailors seeking both performance and comfort. Harlé's design philosophy shines through in the boat's conservative yet effective hull form, featuring a fin keel with rudder on skeg configuration that provides reliable directional stability. The masthead sloop rig delivers manageable sail handling while maintaining respectable performance, making this yacht equally at home in weekend racing or extended coastal passages. With a comfort ratio of 19.88, the Feeling 920 offers a motion that's neither too stiff nor too tender, while the capsize screening formula of 2.12 indicates good stability characteristics for coastal and near-offshore sailing. The generous beam provides comfortable interior volume without compromising the hull's sailing qualities. French builders of this era were known for solid fiberglass construction techniques, and Kirie's reputation aligned with this tradition. The Feeling 920 represents an era when European builders focused on creating seaworthy boats that could handle variable conditions while remaining accessible to recreational sailors seeking their first serious cruising yacht.
