Is it possible to take delivery at the factory (France?), travel around a bit, and have them ship her here to the US?

Hi all - thinking of purchasing a MF855 - anyone out there willing to share their experience of owning one of these? Any advice, tips and problems encountered would be very welcomed. Would you recommend this boat to a first time buyer of a motor boat?

[bittard]

As far as i know Jeanneau's will only be supplied via a commissioning dealer. Not sure where the MF 855 is built but if in one of the main French factories will be quite inland (might also be built in Poland?) so if you want to use in the Atlantic will need to be commissioned at one of their coastal dealers.

On the power front, there were twin batteries, an extra 110A fitted locally, along with the battery charger. You might want to consider the solar panel charging system factory fitted for $3400 if you intend keeping this boat on a mooring. here

Powering up, the twin 200hp Mercury Verado zipped our boat up to planing speed briskly after which I settled down to a 20 knot cruise at 4000rpm. This is the sweet spot in every which way. You’ll be burning around 45lt/hr in total for a range around 160nm+. [links]

The 895 had the optional forward sunpad on the bow (not fitted for photo shoot) with a flip-up backrest that makes a neat forward-facing lounge when anchored. Kids can escape their parents and listen to their choice of music. A couple of suction-cap drink holders are needed, but the split bow rail adds to crew safety on the bow. There’s also room on the narrower portside walkway to stash a SUP. (A factory option that piqued our interest is the forward fold-down ladder on the bow for beach access.) more

While there is a handheld shower in the head below, it will be used infrequently at best on a boat like this. We all know the deck shower is the best option for a rinse after swimming. At 80lt capacity, the holding tank for the manual head is decent for weekending in crowded anchorages. here

For the intended purpose of family cruising in rougher water — read heading home on busy Sunday afternoon — the 3500rpm and 17-20 knot low-speed planing range was held easily without wallowing. The boat turns nicely off the wheel and, in short, fulfils its design brief. [links]

The wheelhouse saloon certainly benefits from the abundance of window space and a starboard side door, enabling you to step out and quickly get to grips with fender duties and mooring lines. The galley is the usual compact set-up with a two-ring gas hob, reasonable storage and a fridge behind the helm seat. Opposite sits the dinette, which converts to a small double berth if need be, and the forward bench seat has a tilting backrest that quickly turns it into a double navigator’s seat. Sadly, in order to get more light into the mid cabin below, the option of fitting an internal skylight took priority over placing a chart table in front of the navigator. [links]

Practicality is the key theme throughout the design of the boat, which is evident the moment you step into the cockpit. The wheelhouse is offset to port, enabling a wider 9″ starboard side deck enclosed by a 15″-deep bulwark complete with side gate – and you still get a 6″ side deck on the port side. The aft bench seat assembly can slide forward on rails, enabling the engine to be trimmed clear of the water when berthed. The large cockpit hatch reveals an even larger lazarette beneath that has its own internal storage lockers. Forward deck access underway, as I found out, is all the safer thanks to tall guard rails and effective non-slip decking everywhere, and the anchor locker is deep enough to cater for fenders and warps, as well as housing a good-sized Lewmar windlass. I was a bit disappointed, however, with the size of the cleats, which, all things considered, was out of keeping. [links]

Every country has its forte when it comes to boatbuilding, and with France it is fast fishing boats. The Jeanneau Merry Fisher 895 epitomises this concept well, offering this yard’s usual blend of practicality, robustness and performance. To be totally fair, this boat is not truly new. It is an incarnation of the previous MF 855 – which is no bad thing, as in creating the MF895, Jeanneau have taken a proven concept and made it that little bit better.

[Mahkul]

The MF895 dry with a Yamaha F300 displaces just over 3300kg. Factor in the nearly full fuel tank and the two crew, and the test boat of the day was weighing in at 3.8 tonnes. The F300 proved well matched to this displacement as the boat pushed up onto the plane fairly quickly, and without any need for trim tabs. Without the Lenco trim tabs off, she will plane at 18 knots at 4000rpm, though the tabs will keep her on the plane a few knots below this speed. Above this speed I felt no need to reach down to the trim tab switch, which is positioned too low and not in keeping with the good helm ergonomics. You have an equally tempting choice of being seated or standing. Though the helm seat puts you in a good spot to see clearly over the bow, with the seat bolster up you can wedge yourself in standing, and get a slightly better view. Visibility on all quarters is very good thanks to the abundance of window space.

As is to be expected of a ‘family fisher’, the hull is a medium-vee design. Consequently if you drop off some big waves at speed and land on the boat’s mid/aft sections, as we did on occasions, you will hear and feel it, and rightly so. The MF895 is no sports boat, but knowing the brand’s reputation for a solid no-frills approach to boatbuilding, throwing this family weekender into the weather, often at wide open throttle, did not concern me, especially after watching Antoine from Jeanneau drive the Merry Fisher in a truly merciless manner. In comparison, some years back I drove a middleweight sports cruiser from a well-known British yard in similar conditions, which subsequently deposited some of its internal fittings on the deck.

Below decks the design has given nothing away. The heads, complete with shower, has enough headroom to accommodate anyone up to 6ft 3in tall and it certainly has enough space for the most well-fed. The mid cabin is par for the course, with a medium-size hanging locker, full standing headroom in the doorway and a wide double berth. In the master’s forepeak cabin, Jeanneau have embellished the large double island bed with a large storage locker underneath, and a slim hanging locker. There is plenty of sleeping space, but limited room around the foot of the bed. [links]
