Felling 55/52

Hi anyone had any experience with either a Feeling 55 or 52
Only a handful built around 2008 onwards.
Particullaly sailing performance/cruising performance,comfort of hull design and the roller furling on boom which is on the 55,
If anyone has opinion on quality of build,(they certainly the goods)
Having a look at one late weekend
Cheers

Yes my best mate has a 55 and it was of 2011 vintage but he did not have furling boom fitted but had self tacking jib fitted performance wise very good easily handle by 2 one thing I was impressed with was the engine Room great acess finish in side was very good he has sail back and forth across from the med to the Caribbean and back past 4 yrs with out a single problem I would happily own one
