Jeanneau Merry Fisher 695

The bright wheelhouse makes excellent use of the available space with large windows, sliding side windows and an opening roof hatch creating a light and airy environment. The dinette converts into an additional double berth, while the separate forward sleeping area provides comfortable overnight accommodation. A dedicated enclosed heads compartment is another feature that makes the Merry Fisher 695 such a practical cruiser for weekends away.

On deck, the spacious cockpit is well suited to entertaining, fishing or family cruising, complemented by teak laid swim platforms, a cockpit table, cushions and the recent full enclosure. The bow thruster and electric windlass help simplify close-quarters manoeuvring and anchoring, while Garmin navigation equipment and VHF provide useful assistance when underway.

Stonefisher presents in nice general condition for her age and specification. She would benefit from a basic clean and tidy, but offers a well-equipped and capable package that will appeal to buyers looking for an easy-to-own sports cruiser with comfortable overnight accommodation.

BROKERS REMARKS

Stonefisher is a really honest example of the ever-popular Merry Fisher 695. She's nicely specified with the Yamaha 150HP, bow thruster and Garmin electronics, while the more recent additions including the cockpit enclosure and Coppercoat are welcome improvements. Overall she presents in nice general condition, although I think she would benefit from a straightforward clean and tidy to really show herself at her best. For anyone looking for a practical and versatile wheelhouse cruiser that's equally happy with family days out or weekends away, she's well worth coming to view. She is equipped with all the features most of us would want at this size.
