Tenacious Boat | 54' Feeling 1997

JUST REDUCED 1/26/2025! THE OWNER WANTS THIS BOAT SOLD!!

Feeling Yachts go all the way back to 1912 when the Kirié shipyard, founded by the Kiriéfamily, set up shop in a small garage on Rue de la Forêt in the Sables d'Olonne. The shipyard originally built small sailing boats. In the 1950s, production turned more towards speed boats. In the late ‘60s, the shipyard expanded and moved to the Château d'Olonne near the Sables d'Olonne. It was one of the first to work with polyester. In the early ‘80s, Kirié launched a range of habitable power cruise ships called "Feeling". In 1986, the 13.5m Feeling won the Route du Rhum in the standard boat category and the 10.9m Feeling was voted "Boat of the year" in 1987.

In 2000, Alliaura Marine took over the Kirié shipyard. As of 2010, Feeling was owned by Privilège Marine Groupe. While Feelings are no longer in production, Privilège continues today and are well known for their line of catamarans.

The Feeling 546 was designed as a fast sea going cutter by Ron Holland and Andrew Winch and built in fiberglass. Due to her quality construction, large fresh water and fuel tanks, the electricity production and the huge livable and storage volumes, this Feeling 546 is an excellent sailboat for life aboard all year long and to sail the world. The large cockpit, with twin steering stations, offers a lot of comfort when anchored or while at sea.

Our offering, TENACIOUS, was the last 546 built and was for the personal use of the owner of the Kirié Shipyard. Her current owner is her third. Under his care, he has invested significantly in upgrading her, as you will see in the listing details. At this point in his life, he is ready to move on to other things, so he has decided it is also time to part with the boat that has provided him with a home and safe passages for years.

TENACIOUS is a solid boat, a ship to go to sea in knowing it will protect you. The fit and finish are impressive and her rugged built is evident throughout. She’s equipped to take you anywhere and, for a boat her size, for not a whole lot of money. At the dock (or wherever you are), she is a spacious home. Underway, she awaits the opportunity to safely take her next caretakers wherever their dreams take them.

Call today and make an appointment to come see her before she is gone!
