Hey Andy, it depends on who you ask. For me, it's the best thing ever, but my wife is a princess and needs her bed at home :-). Overnight or weekends in Marinas with the family is fun as you have the amenities of the marina. I often overnight alone at anchor and really enjoy that. It's a little camper on the water...love it. Cheers 🤙

Great question :-) we are fortunate enough since last summer to have our boat docked right in front of the house. So, we try to go for a quick ride almost every day. Or I do anyway :-) Our season starts in late april and goes to mid-October. May and October are cooler months off course, but as you know, these boats are great when the weather is not so great.

That sounds like heaven. 🌅 Happy Boat Season!

Hey Scott, sorry, it was from an old remix, and I forget what it is called. Cheers, my friend 👊

Sure was, had the whole river to myself :-)

Thanks, but can't really take the credit, templates in video editing software makes it pretty easy.

Sure is and only a few minutes from our house. Now, if only we could get a bigger Jeanneau like yours 😉 🤙

@@ChasingSunsets using one is the first step. No matter what boat you have, it seems like it is always thinking about the next one.

All jokes asside, it is the perfect size and budget friendly for us. Keep up the great work with your videos. They are awesome.

@@ChasingSunsets thank you for the encouragement. Love seeing people enjoying the water, I need to get out for a sunset this week.

Just a little teaser as I wait for summer. Cheers bud 🤙

@@ChasingSunsets my boat hopefully goes back in at the end of March......cannot wait but a few jobs to do before then.🤙

It's sooo peaceful :-)

Hey Flint, we are french Canadians(Acadians), speaking a mix of French and English (called chiac). We speak french at home but do the videos mainly in English for everyone. Where are you from?

@@ChasingSunsets I’m from Australia. Does anyone speak chiac in france?

Nice...Australia is on my bucket list. Chiac (Acadian French) is specific to South Eastern New Brunswick Canada.

Hi Alesmed, thanks for watching. Did you have a question?

Hi Alesmed, thanks for watching. Did you have a question?

So true :-) Hope you get to spend lots of time on your new boat as well. 🛥

I Bill, I believe it's around 32 knots, but I always cruise at 20 knots and occasionally open it up.

Hi again! Can you tell me which prop you have on your boat? Is it a Reliance stainless . Also what numbers? (diameter and pitch). Thank you

Hi Bill, I am not sure of the details but will take a look this weekend. Cheers 🤙

@billgarton6142 Hey Bill, it is a reliance stanless steel 15 and 14 1/2.

Thank you, much appreciated. I have the 695 Sport (same hull as yours) They fitted mine with 18 and 14 1/4 I think that mine is the wrong prop I will find out in the spring as I didn’t receive my boat until October 😕

Thanks Mark, it certainly works well for our small family and our Canadian weather. Cheers 🤙

Sure is... we're totally enjoying having the boat right at home. There is still lots of work to be done around the new house, but we will do that after boating season :-) 🤙

Hey Gerd, I'm really glad our videos helped you. Luckily, I did not have any major issues or gas smell. I did, however, realise over the years that new boats always come with various little issues. Some need to be fixed by the dealer, and other, you simply need to bite the bulet and do it yourself in order o get it resolved quickly and to your standards. Don't be too disappointed. This boat will bring you plenty of joy for years to come...simply work at getting those issues fixed and have fun. Cheers bud 🤙

Totally agree...put the wipers on and some good Irish Music and all is good. Cheers bud 🤙

Hey Richard, that is awesome... you can reach out to me via IG at yvanlaviolette or chasingsunsets71 and I will be happy to answer your questions. Cheers 🤙

Thanks bud, we really love having our boat right at home :-) Hope you get to enjoy yours just as much. Where is home port for you? We should have another video out in the next week or two. Cheers 🤙

Hey Gustave, 20kts is the perfect crusing speed for this boat when equipped with a yamaha 150. She runs at 4100rpm at that speed. It's a great boat 🤙

@@ChasingSunsets thanks!😁 looks like a perfect boat.

Yes, it's a great boating area and even more beautiful in the fall when the trees change colors. Did you get your boat yet?

Hey Alex, that is awesome. I'm glad our videos helped guide you in choosing a boat. Where is home-port for you?

@ChasingSunsets I am originally from Denmark. But I own a plastic factory in Bangkok Thailand. The boats port is Juelsminde Denmark. In 10 days I will go summer holliday in Europe. Road trip Austria - italy- switzerland 10 days And sailing the boat on and off for 3 weeks. Can't wait...

Wow, that sounds like you will have quite the trip. Enjoy and all the best with your factory in Bangkok. Cheers 👊

It actually sounds louder on the video than in reality. Or perhaps I am getting used to it, but no dought that every time I close the door, it makes it nice and quiet.

Thanks for taking the time to comment, Philip, and sorry for the late reply. We are loving our Merry Fisher, awesome boat for the family. Whishing lots of sunshine this summer 👊

Tks man, it's man version of the Van life ;-)

Hey Jack, tks brother, we are all moved in. Ordered our new docks and will be lucky enough have the boat right in front of the house this summer. More video or short clips to follow :-)

Thanks Jack, apprecite you checking in... we've been busy building our new home and just moved in a few weeks ago. It is a waterfront property, so our 695 will be nested just in front. Hopefully, more videos will come now that we are getting settled in. 🤙

No problem at all with the X5. I towed it with the Mercedes GLE, which is the equivalent to the X5 barely felt it. Feel free to follow me on Instagram @yvanlaviolette if you have more questions.

gíd for yú

Hey, we wake board a bit, but mainly kite surf. I see the odd water skier.

We really love ours.

Merci, c'est super gentil. Le Nouveau-Brunswick est toujours plein de francophone, même si beaucoup d'entre-nous semble mêler les deux langue(chiac) come on l'appel. Il y auta d'autres vidéo a venir 🤙

@@ChasingSunsetsMerci de ta reponse. Ah super, j'ai hate! Vive l'Acadie, continuez a faire du bruit (du tintamarre surtout 😉💪)

Hi Luca, we speak french as a family, sometimes french and english in the same sentence lol.

a foreign language LOL

Hey Mark, I beleive we got these chairs at Costco but I will have a look at the tag on the chair the next time I am in the boat. Thanks for watching our little adventures. Boston is awesome 🤙👊

@@ChasingSunsets thanks man

@@ChasingSunsets btw, if you don’t mind me asking, how has reliability been so far?

Two summers of use and still holding on strong 💪

Hey hey, tks for the message. All is really good and have tones of footage. Will need to take time to share again. Lots of good news ahead with new home in construction that will be better suited for the lifestyle ;-)

@@ChasingSunsets Wow I'm so pleased to hear that... Congratulations on a new house!!! I got good news to for the past 7 months I've been a proud owner off new Merry Fisher 795 s2 we absolutely love every moment of it but I still wanna watch your video's 🤣🤣🤣 it is just beautiful part of the world Cheers mate from Melbourne Australia

Thanks and big congrats on your 795, we almost upgraded to a 795 as well, but not the right timming when building a new home 🤣. Cheers mate and keep an eye out for a new video.

Hi Gary, happy to see your message has we posted our videos to share some fun adventures on the water. Be sure to connect with us on IG at ChasingSunsets71 and send us some pics of your 695 when you get it. Cheers, Yvan, Anne & Océane. 🤙

Hey David, she goes about 53kmh.

Nice. Im looking at a 22 with a 150 merc.

Let me know if you have any questions Dam. Always happy help.

@@ChasingSunsets what's towing weight of yours ?

I am guessing around 5000lbs but too sure.

Hey Martin, all questions are good my friend. This spot is great, water goes to approximately 6 or 7 feet deep at the stern. Thanks for watching and let me know if you have other questions.

Your welcome Steve and congrats on the purchase of your 795...seven months will pass and the day will arrive that you take her out for the first time.

Lol thanks Phil, sometimes, it's the little things that make us laugh and getting on the boat is always one of them. Thanks for watching and subscribing, we will have new videos this winter as I took lots of footage this summer.

Merci Fabien, que du bon plaisirs.

Thanks for watching 👊

Merci, on aime bien ça. La vie est belle :-)
