Nimbus 12 Series (2026-)

Brief Summary

Nimbus has long been recognized for Scandinavian design principles, practical engineering, and boats built for year-round use. The latest 12 Series continues that heritage with a broad set of refinements applied to all three versions: Weekender 12, Tender 12, and Commuter 12. Exterior features gain a more expressive profile, while the extended platform and thicker rail system bring a sense of security and closeness to the water. Newly developed helm seating offers improved posture support for longer outings, supported by better airflow, brighter illumination, and more accessible service points throughout the boats.

Each model in the series expresses its own purpose. The Tender 12 receives the most dramatic transformation, featuring a larger protective roof with solar capability and a starboard balcony that opens outward to expand social space at anchor. The Weekender 12 now includes a modern Targa-style roof inspired by an iconic Nimbus classic, and the Commuter 12 introduces a redesigned deck salon with a galley-up layout and convertible seating for overnight stays. Optional hydraulic platforms for outboard configurations, joystick-assisted propulsion systems from both Mercury and Volvo Penta, new windscreen wiper systems, and fresh aft-deck seating arrangements all contribute to smoother handling and more enjoyable time onboard.
