1990 Kirie FEELING 39DI

THE FEELING  39DI:

Most people aboard a ballasted 38-foot monohull tend to leave the boat on a mooring in 10 or more feet of water and take a dinghy to the beach. Not when sailing the  Feeling 396 DI; it’s designed to slip onto that beach like a catamaran – on purpose, mind you.

The magic is accomplished by means of a large, lifting, keel-like centerboard that reduces 7’4″ of upwind draft to a beachable 2’11″. Hull sections are basically flat from stem to stern to minimize the depth of the underbody. Structural skegs on either side of the centerboard trunk and at the propeller protect those critical areas. In lieu of one high-aspect, balanced-spade rudder are two shallower elliptical foils canted port and starboard.
