The Nimbus 250 R, a classic representative of the Nimbus image, has been
given a serious facelift for 2010. Part of the popular Nimbus R series, the
Nimbus 250 R was introduced in 2001. The R series was greeted with
enthusiasm for its innovative design with round stern and its slightly
“pugnacious” look. The boat won the “Utmärkt Svensk Form” industrial
design award, and has been a leading star product for Nimbus ever since.
The R series is built in three variations, Nimbus 230 R, Nimbus 250 R and
Nimbus 300 R. Several hundred boats of each model have now found
homes with very satisfied customers on the west coast of Sweden, Oslo and
Stockholm; places that feature among the boat’s best markets, owing to the
R series’ innovative design and excellent seaworthiness, with safe handling
at all speeds and in all weather conditions.
The Nimbus 250 R has been given an overall facelift for 2010 and many properties of this already
highly competent boat have been further improved. The major changes are these:
- New, larger helm with longer sides to protect both helmsman and passengers.
- Entirely new helmsman’s environment, designed for safe and comfortable voyaging and fast, long-distance cruising.
- 14” navigation equipment can now be fitted.
- The teak cabin door has been replaced by an elegant sliding door in smoked glass that slides in beneath the instrument panel.
- The new windscreen matches the new design and provides better protection.
- Lots more stowage space under the floor.
- RE-positioned batteries for better use of stowage space under the aft sofa.
And as the jewel in the crown; Nimbus, working with DLS audio, have developed a customised Hifi
system for optimum sound.
