Exterior Description and Features
Asymmetrical Deck Layout:
Jeanneau went with an offset wheelhouse for the Merry Fisher 855 and as such the starboard side deck is wider than the portside. This again plays into the sliding side door next to the starboard side helm. However, the port side deck is still easy to negotiate thanks to the abundance of handrails and the side rail that extends well back to the cockpit.
Cockpit:
The cockpit is down two steps from the side decks and presents a wide open space. An opening gate to the starboard side leads to the swim platform.
- Movable Rear Bench Seat - The cockpit bench seat is mounted to a rail allowing it to slide forward creating room for the engines to be fully raised when beaching the boat or taking her out of service. With the outboards down the seat slides back providing more deck space.
- U-Shaped Seating - Can be converted to a sunpad
- Cockpit Table - The plastic, all-weather table can flip open, and is supported by a single leg that slides into a floor fitting. The whole table can easily be removed.
- Extended Sunshade - Sunbrella, beige
Bow:
The bow is accessed by either of the side decks, with the starboard of course being easier to negotiate as it is wider than the portside deck. The bow features a split rail forward easing the chore of working the ground tackle as well as facilitating bow-in mooring. A large anchor locker makes managing any tangles easy whether the optional windlass is chosen or not. Just behind is an open deck that will accommodate a sun pad and also has a hatch leading to the forward cabin.
Dual Opening Skylights:
While the benefits of the hardtop are obvious, this design also incorporates two opening smoked skylights. They let daylight in while still providing protection, and when desired allow sunlight and fresh air in. This design also aids in visibility from the helm when making turns to port. The skylight drops down into view of the turn adding to the safety factor.
Sliding Side Door:
A door just to starboard of the helm allows quick access to the side decks making single-handed operations a simple affair. A large cleat is just forward of this door, and if it were relocated to a position adjacent to the door it would make single-handed tie-ups even easier.
Interior Description and Features
Interior Overview:
There is a pocket door that leads into the forward berth as well as a hinging door that opens into the aft cabin. With two opening side windows and two opening sunroof hatches, ventilation will be the least of the concerns. Natural light is also a non-issue with nearly 360-degrees of visibility. For that reason, should any guest be sleeping on the main deck, optional wraparound canvas closes off all of the glass for privacy.
Salon/Dining Area:
To the port side is booth seating that offers a surprising amount of flexibility and really adds to the cruise-ability of the Merry Fisher 855. In the dining configuration two couples will be sitting across from each other with the table in the middle. In cruise configuration, the front seat reverses and becomes forward facing seating.
- Booth Seating - In grey vinyl. The forward seat is also reversible allowing it to convert to a forward facing bench seat.
- Wood Table - Hinged, opens up twice as wide. The table drops down to form a berth creating room for a single person to spend the night onboard.
Galley:
The galley is over to the starboard side just behind the helm.
- Cooktop - Single Burner Propane cooktop
- Stainless Steel Sink
- Refrigerator - with freezer compartment
- Flip down lid for flat surface when not in use.
Helm:
Jeanneau accommodates sitting at the helm with the comfortable bucket seat and a flip-down foot rest. Flip up the foot rest and standing at the helm becomes equally comfortable. It is also equally comfortable to be sitting with one foot resting on the sill of the open side door and enjoying the unobstructed view of the water passing by.

- Windlass controls
- Engine start/stop and electronic shifters with outboard trim/tilt
- Breakers panel
Master Stateroom:
The accommodations deck is down two forward steps and the design allows for two private cabins, something practically unheard of in a boat this size. The forward cabin features an island berth with access to both sides. The clever use of space again comes into play here as the berth is only 5'9" when not in use providing much easier access throughout the cabin. When it's time to turn in, it then extends to a full 6'8". The usual storage is accommodated and natural light comes in through hullside windows and an overhead hatch.
Guest:
Just abaft of the Master is a guest cabin with a double berth and standing headroom at the entrance. Natural light comes from overhead and hullside windows.
Head:
To starboard, another solid door enters to a head compartment with vanity, storage, sink, wand shower/faucet, plus a manual marine head with holding tank.
- Head - Manual Head
- Faucet
- Shower - Wet head
