Now exclusively available through Williams & Smithells International, this 1999 Feeling 306 is an ideal compact cruiser offering excellent shallow-water access thanks to her lifting keel and single rudder configuration. Designed by Gilles Vaton and built by Kirié/Alliaura Marine, she blends modern styling with solid French construction, perfect for coastal cruising, family sailing, or exploring tidal waters with ease.
Powered by a reliable Yanmar 18HP diesel engine, this 30-footer features a sloop rig with a roller furling genoa and slab reefing mainsail for effortless handling. Her upgraded standing rigging (2018/19), five self-tailing winches, and updated pipework (2022/23) ensure confidence under sail. A 50W solar mat, shore power, and a Hi-tec battery charger support onboard systems. Navigation is well-equipped with autopilot, plotter, VHF, and more with AIS ready for activation.
Below deck, she’s surprisingly spacious, sleeping 4 across two private cabins with a light-filled saloon, full galley, heads with shower, and ample storage. Her compact yet comfortable layout makes her ideal for first-time owners or sailors looking to downsize. Currently ashore at Northshore Shipyard, she’s ready for viewing.

The condition or level of safety equipment on board is not to be negotiated on following survey. It is likely to be listed by most surveyors but is not structural or an integral working part of the vessel and is not to be used to further negotiate the price down after survey. We strongly suggest that for your own personal safety that when purchasing a yacht you provide new safety equipment rather than relying on second hand gear.
Should you become the new owner of this yacht then the responsibility to re-register or update official bodies for items such as EPIRB, VHF, MMSI or AIS becomes yours.
