After this period, Doré left the Navy to become the head of the "Ecole navale de la marine marchande" (Naval school for commercial shipping), based in Sète on the Mediterranean. During the Franco-Prussian War, Doré offered to the Marine Ministry to re-commission the Plongeur, but his offer was rejected.
