Old Jeanneau Names

[MalcolmP]

A few years ago I produced a short table showing some of the varying names that have been used for Jeanneau models in different markets:

jeanneau-owners.com/specifications.html


An owner of an Arcadia in Norway has just joined whose boat was described as Rush 90 and he has given me the link to another one currently for sale also in Norway


www.finn.no/boat/forsale/ad.html?finnkode=103379703&fks=103379703



I suspect the name was used as the original Jeanneau Rush had been a very successful design, so this was a way of raising awareness in the Scandinavian market

If anyone has more knowledge or photos on any of the "alternative name" designs, for example the Atlantic 44 I would love to also have that for the archives

Malcolm,
I'm recalling this combo getting brought up one other time many years ago. IIRC it was a name only used in Sweden Norway area of the world for the reason you suspect. I'm even recalling seeing a brochure(s) for some Rush named boats in this area where they were called something else everywhere else.
There is no doubt in my mind, that Rush 90 listed and shown is an Arcadia. Right down to the few of us with tillers on our boats like myself.

After a bit more "google" research it seems that in Norway at least the "Rush" variants included:

Jeanneau Rush 111 aka Sun Shine 36

Jeanneau Rush 97 aka Attalia

Jeanneau Rush 90 aka Arcadia

Jeanneau Rush 84 aka Aquila

Jeanneau Rush 77 aka Fantasia

Ill llok tonight when home from work, I'm recalling someone bringing this up in a forum post a decade ago.......
That does look like a couple of the ones I am recalling with Rush variants.
