The above are photos of an available space in the aft main locker port side. I have only opened a window to reach this section. There is only vantilation hose passing through on to the left side of this dry space. Anything you see inside is from the factory production process, including dirt. If you think you may use it, it is possible to open the entry wider for ease of accsess.

Ihsan, thanks for posting these photo’s. I’ve looked at his area with a camera and ran some cable through it, but I’ve not opened it up with an access hatch like you have. I’ve wondered why Jeanneau didn’t open it up to use as a additional stowage.

Ron thanks for your comments. A senior technician exprienced in Merry Fisher gave me the idea. The space is not huge but not small either. Port side offers balanced distribution of weight since most of the additions are on the starboard side. Opening the window bigger is possible, and thats in my mind.
I have also opened two symmetrical windows under the aft sliding bench, left and right. These open up to the rear area. You can easily store longer objects like brushes and handles,. Suprisingly these long objects stand secure, firm and easily reachable. If I can get to the boat I shall send pictures,

Sorry, not quite understanding where... by main locker you mean the one in the cockpit outside the pilothouse, with the hatch that the outside table sits on? More space would be good, although we tend to have a list-to-port-not-starboard problem, with the driver on starboard and rest of the family on port.

Timbray, yes when you open the hatch under the outside table, you see the place for your life raft storage and your batteries. After opening this hatch you shall see that the port side is closed. If you open this seperation by an electric saw you reach another usuable dry closed area. This is important because its quite a space for a boat of this size. I have also moved the batteries towards the pilothouse abüut 10 cm.s to create more space.

Opening up this spot is a great idea, it could be a good tool compartment, maybe even with sliding drawers or a hatch for tools, I will look into this further now that my solar panel installation is near completion.
I’ve also thought about opening up a compartment under the inside cabin table on that port side. On the 755’s that whole space is unused and inaccessible, which is a shame. I think it’s the same for the 795’s. Has anyone added doors under the port side If the cabin table?

Jnorris, under floor of the cabin table inside, there is a quite useful hatch. When they deliver the boat they put most of the stuff including keys, parts and manuels for you there. This space covers almost all the area under the table, I recently found out that it also continues under the co pilot seat. But reaching under seat stowage place from the floor hatch is quite difficult, You may put things by pushing there but it is not practical and wise. What I plan to do is to open a hatch from the corridor side in order to put things there and reach them easily. It is an other considerable amount of valuable dry space, very close to you under your hand.

Looking for more storage space in a 795, its possible to open two symmetrical hatches inside your sliding seat like in the picture below. There are two small plywood platforms inside. These can be used to store tools and small boxes with some minor carpenter work and adjustments. Improvements are up to you. The third round one in the middlle is only for visual check of the aft and connections there. For some reason the one on the starboard side allows you to store longer objects like your hook and brush if you point, push and place them towards starboard direction. They are easily picked up if you place one end on the platform. I have not tried but fishing rods probably may also be stored there. Unlike most of you, I have Evinrude G2 200, instead of Mercury and Yamaha. This engine in its utmost tilted position does not require moving the sliding bench. However even if you move your bench you can still use your hatchs with some degree of caution. Because of lock out I will send more pictures when I get to the boat. i.ibb.co/m67GThY/thumbnail.jpg

Question for Ishan Very interested ho get performance data from your boat. Is it a G2-200hp?HO? That V6. 200hp engine is just outstanding, I did some test on it on a bass boat, it had so much torque at low end , I increased the prop pith by 4" (19 to 23)just to see if the G2 was able to get out of the holeshot and get WOT over 5k....from memory, WOT was lower and we lost on top speed but increase mpg at cruising speed by lowering rev's for same speed, because it has torque, but for a bass boat top speed and acceleration are important so we put back the 19", but for a cruiser, could have been good.

Evinrude G2 200 C 2,7 liter V6 66 degree engine. To tell the truth I found the HO massive looking and did not go for it. Mine delivered WOT 5200-5300 rpm with the propeller originally on during test trials. The dealer proposed a smaller pitch size, to reach 5800 rpm. but I did not go for it. Top speed was 32 to 34 mph. with two persons and full tank. At the moment plaining is relatively quick. I use the flaps and easily reach plaining with full load, around 4000 rpm. I think this is mostly due to the 2 stroke. Performance and torque seem better than a 4 stroke. I like cruising with 10-15 miles, and having power when needed is nice.

200ho has 1.85 gear ratio, >50 pounds more and 200 has 2.17, my test was on HO. Do you have fuel consumption? Where are you from? I saw G2 on Jeanneau only in Istanbul. Do you think that G2 performs better than a 4stroke like Mercury V6_3.4_200HP?

The only dealer for Jeanneau power boats is or was at the same time the distributer for Evinrude engines in Turkey. Therefore we all have Evinrude powering our boats. Now that Evinrude stopped production I really dont know what they will do in 2021. In case of Beneteau power boats, they had mostly Mercury and some Suzuki engines. I have heard some complaints about performance of Mercury, but I am not in a position to clarify technically what is going on. I see in marinas 8 or 9 antares Beneteau's with Mercury, cant lift the engine completely out of water. My opinion is that Evinrude has no touch down problem. When they start powering new Jeanneau's with Mercury perhaps we shall make better comparison. A new 1095 came to the marina with Mercury engines. We shall see.
