The Feeling 52 Elvira is a rare Alliaura Marine build from the Privilege stable, and one of those yachts that makes you stop mid-walk on the dock. She delivers the volume and comfort you normally only get on a catamaran, with the sailing feel and passage-making manners of a serious monohull. Her defining feature is the retractable keel: draw just 1.3 m for exploring shallow bays and drying out upright with twin rudders, then drop the keel to 3.70 m when you want proper upwind bite.
Set up for true bluewater cruising and short-handed handling, Elvira is easy to manage in all conditions with furling systems, electric winches, and a sail wardrobe upgraded in 2022. Under power she is equally unique, with two independent Volvo Penta 55 hp engines and saildrives, giving catamaran-style redundancy and impressive charging capability. Add a walk-in engine room, separated and clearly organised systems, a huge protected cockpit with hardtop and full enclosure, and a bright 360-degree deck saloon, and you have a turnkey yacht built for long-range living.
