The Merry Fisher 695 is Jeanneau’s masterclass in compact coastal cruising: a clever, versatile outboard model designed for families who want to enjoy the sea in comfort and confidence. Practical, easy to handle, and built to explore every corner of the coastline, it offers a welcoming balance of sheltered wheelhouse cruising and open‑air enjoyment. Its design ethos is clear in the manufacturer’s own description of the model as “perfect for family coastal cruising, and a delight for all who love the sea”.
With the ability to shift effortlessly between activities—diving and sunbathing in a quiet creek, early‑morning fishing with the children, or autumn outings with friends—the 695 is built for year‑round enjoyment. Jeanneau emphasises this versatility, noting that “it can do it all” across a wide range of on‑water adventures. Its seaworthy hull, reassuring handling, and capable engine options make it a confident partner whether you’re cruising sheltered waters or stretching out along the coast.
Inside, the Merry Fisher 695 delivers impressive comfort for its size: a bright wheelhouse saloon that converts to an additional berth, two forward berths, a compact galley with refrigerator, a separate marine head, generous storage, and an L‑shaped cockpit leading to wide swim platforms for easy access to the water. Trailerability adds another layer of practicality, making ownership simpler and extending the range of cruising grounds available.
For families, new boaters, and coastal explorers alike, the Merry Fisher 695 stands out as a capable, confidence‑inspiring cruiser that brings the joy of the sea within easy reach.
