After Henry Jeanneau sold the business to Bangor Punta he was involved in 2 further boatyards that were established with or by his Daughter.
The first was Gibert Marine, located in Marans, who produced the Gib'sea yacht range (including building variants of the Jeanneau Poker, Sangria and Gin Fizz) Gib'sea were later bought into the Dufour empire prior to closure in the 1990's. The factory was reopened for the manufacture of the Poncin/Harmony range.
During the eighties a new boatyard for large luxury boats "Dynamique Yachts" was created what would then have been a range of super yachts up to 110 feet LOA. Dynamique were also acquired by Dufour and the yard at Andilly was closed only in October this year.
Henry and Nelly's own boat, was this Dynamique 47 originally called "Sea for Two" built in 1988 was sold in Spain in 2011 and had been renamed as "Sapphire"
I plan to update the Jeanneau history section soon, so if anyone can has any additional information on the Jeanneau dynasty that would be really appreciated
