Feeling 720

Broker Remarks

This Feeling 720 is the aft cabin, aft heads version, which provides incredible accommodation for a yacht of this size.The Feeling 720 is extremely responsive and very easily controlled without being challenging!The owner has cruised her throughout the 15 years of ownership and has never raced her although she keeps good pace with other larger yachts on the cruising circuit.The Feeling 720 is ideal for a couple to do extended cruising on but is also comfortable with 4 people, the owner has done this on many occasions.The current owner has been very busy during the last three years carrying out maintenance which has been very benificail as the boat is in fantastic condition.The engine was stripped down and overhauled in March 2011, new piston rings and big end bearings were fitted, the old bearings were fine but the owner insists it was foolish not to do them at the same time.In 2010 below the waterline, hull and keel were slurry blasted and 4 coats of gel shield 2000 were applied, he also had the internal headlining replaced during the same year.The yacht is laid up ashore until the end of April and the and craning fees are pre-paid therefore no outlay until she is launched. (SHE IS DUE TO BE LAUNCHED ON THE 20TH OF APRIL SO TO SEE HER ON THE HARD STANDING VIEWINGS MUST BE ARRANGED BEFORE THIS DATE!)
