Jeanneau is showing a mixed fleet at Grand Pavois in La Rochelle through 27 September 2026, with three boats qualifying for Luxury Yacht Guide's 12.00–23.99-metre category. They are the Merry Fisher 1295 Coupé, Sun Odyssey 415 and Sun Odyssey 455.
The manufacturer's wider display includes smaller Merry Fisher, Cap Camarat and Sun Odyssey models. Those should not be counted as LYG yachts solely because they appear in the same official announcement.
Merry Fisher 1295 Coupé for motor cruising
The 12.41-metre Merry Fisher 1295 Coupé represents the motor-yacht side of the qualifying display. Its enclosed saloon and cruising layout provide an alternative to Jeanneau's smaller fishing and day-boat lines.
Buyers can inspect weather protection, helm visibility, circulation and the relationship between accommodation and cockpit. They should confirm the individual boat's equipment instead of assuming every option is standard.
Two new-generation Sun Odyssey models
The 12.35-metre Sun Odyssey 415 and 14.28-metre 455 form the sailing side of the group. Jeanneau's latest cruising family is being presented to French visitors during an active September boat-show season.
Seeing both in the water makes the scale difference easier to judge, especially around cockpit and living spaces. A sea trial remains important when assessing sail handling and motion.
Distinctive French show programme
La Rochelle provides a different audience and cruising context from the major Mediterranean shows. The regional appearance matters for owners in western France considering Atlantic sailing and dealer support.
The official event page does not assign all models a premiere status. Readers should distinguish the documented line-up from launch announcements released elsewhere.
Grand Pavois concludes on Sunday
Jeanneau confirms dates of 22–27 September and offers visitor invitation requests through the dedicated event page. The full stand contains many under-12-metre boats not included in this LYG selection.
For LYG buyers, the practical story is an opportunity to inspect the 1295 Coupé alongside two sailing designs in one show. Any later changes to the display should be checked with the builder before travelling.
