I'm seaching for a vendor that may have a replacement lockset (cylinder and keys). I seached many places for the key blanks but could not find anything. Thank you, Brian

I had the same problem finding key blanks. When I bought our boat last year, we only got one key. I ended up having to buy the blanks from Jeanneau and taking the blanks to a locksmith who cut the copies for me.

Windward54, if you have a contact # for Jeanneau please let me know. I believe I've e-mailed them several times last year with no response. Thank you, Brian

I went through Jeanneau America, in the Annapolis, Maryland. They can get most any part that you need, although you will have to pay for the shipping from France a lot of the times. However, key blanks are usually in stock. Gilles has always been great to work with on getting the parts I needed.

Windward54, Jeanneau did not have a replacement and advise to find a solution. I did. Went to my local locksmith. $75USD and a day later had 3 customed made keys and a working lock. Thank you again. Brian

Just back from skiing in French alps. Brought key with me and local hardware store -in small mountain village- was able to cut two keys fr me. They are a standard French key and not anything special. Total cost €3.50 each -if you dont add in the cost of the holiday 😃.
Maybe some French based members could send blanks to the members in need!
