There is a double sink in the center of the saloon, a design feature common to some newer Feeling models. Although unusual, it is remarkably practical, giving a handhold and bracing point as you move about the saloon at sea, and allowing the sinks to drain on either tack. Headroom in the aft part of the saloon is 6' 6". The saloon settee berths are each 6' 6" long. The galley worktop area can be extended by taking the cover off the stove, which then becomes a tray/shelf which clips into place between the galley and the sink island. You can of course also use it as a tray to hand food and drinks out into the cockpit!

The galley worktops are of Corian, and the sink tops have a proper secure stowage under the cooker

The joinery on the yacht illustrated is in cherrywood, and whilst the trim is solid wood, much of the paneling is a high quality and very tough cherrywood finish laminate. An alternative interior finish has light walnut panelling with cherrywood trim.
