The Feeling 1090, launched in 1987 by the French shipyard Kirié, represents a pivotal moment in production boatbuilding where performance-oriented naval architecture met a radical shift in interior aesthetics. Designed by the legendary Philippe Harlé in collaboration with Alain Mortain, the 1090 was an evolution of the earlier Feeling 1040 hull, extended with a more generous sugar-scoop transom and a larger sail plan. It achieved immediate critical acclaim, being named "Boat of the Year" in France in 1987. The model remained in production until 1995, with approximately 350 units built, solidifying its reputation as a versatile cruiser capable of both offshore passage-making and competitive club racing. Its most distinguishing feature for the era was the "panoramic" deck saloon styling, which brought an unprecedented amount of light into the living spaces, a design philosophy that would not become industry-standard for another decade.
