Broker's Comments
Nimbus Yachts are one of the best known boatbuilding yards in Scandinavia, producing a range of powerboats in Gothenburg since 1968. Known for their high quality build, attention to detail and smart design features they are popular worldwide and well regarded by thousands of satisfied owners.
The Nimbus 280 Coupe is a versatile design; they have managed to combine style with practicality and so she seems like a much bigger boat than her overall length has you believe.
There's plenty of usable deck area, great visibility from the helm and the saloon area is light and bright. Down below the layout offers options of 3 singles or a double with a quarter berth forward and an easily convertible saloon.
She feels really roomy and has lots of light and ventilation as well as plenty of practical storage. She's well equipped for extended cruising in comfort with heating and hot water.
This boat presents well, she is clean and fresh and bright below and although due a hull polish she's been out and recently antifouled and has a good service and maintenance schedule.
If you are looking for a really versatile small motor cruiser then this Nimbus 280 is hard to beat.
