JEANNEAU OUTBOARDS COME TO CANADA

Jeanneau Outboards Event

June 30, 2017

Jeanneau America held a recent two day event in Annapolis Maryland called “ Throttle Down on South River” to display their latest outboard models for their Dealers and the Media.

Nick Harvey, the President of Jeanneau America gave an opening presentation on the history of Jeanneau and the part it plays from within Groupe Beneteau.

Jeanneau outboards represent 25% of the entire outboard market in Europe, and this in itself, speaks on the quality of the product.

On Day Two we were able to sea trial all the models. I elected to sea trial the NC 895, and the Leader 10.5. Canadian Yachting will be scripting a boat review on both these models to be included in future issues of CY.

Pictured above from the right are: Nick Harvey, President Jeanneau Americas, Margriet Mitchell, Marketing Manager Jeanneau, and John Armstrong from Canadian Yachting.
