10/12/2012 JEANNEAU UNVEIL NEW MODELS Jeanneau and Prestige have proudly unveiled several new models at the Paris Boat show but the star of the show has got to be the brand new Voyage 42 from Jeanneau. At nearly 14m LOA this totally new range has arrived amid quite a fanfare and it doesn't disappoint. It features an incredibly light and airy main saloon with a well equipped galley and helm station, there is plenty of storage beneath the saloon floor in well searated compartments with space for a wine cooler, large freezer, washing machine and everything else you could hope for when planning extended cruising. The two cabins have generous sized beds and large windows allowing plenty of light in and the two head compartments both have separate showers allowing for even greater comfort on board. The cockpit is large with plenty of seating and the wide flybridge ladder doesn't encroach on this space. The flybridge itself has space for a wide double sunpad, sociable seating for six around the table and a flexible forward seating arrangement to allow either more sunbathing space or forward facing seating. The helm position enjoys a good view and the full complement of repeat instrumentation. Also launched at the show were the NC14, a true big brother for the successful NC9 and 11. The Merry Fisher 855 Marlin, which will be a hit with both anglers and families with its large deck and saloon space and the Prestige 450; which, although it is smaller than the 500, makes a successful transition of the popular central owners suite layout without losing any of its appeal. Robin and Harry spent the weekend at the show getting to know the new models in preparation for the London Boatshow in January and will be happy to forward pictures and descriptions of any of these new models. Watch this space for more exciting news on these new models later this week!!!!
