Nimbus 27 Coupe - 1993. This Swedish boat builder is well known for their superior build quality and this cruiser is in very good condition having been well maintained and much improved by the current owner. The boat is ready to go for the Spring season having just had a major service, anti-foul, anodes, cutlass bearing and stern gland replacement. The single Volvo Penta TAMD 31 engine has also been much upgraded since 2019, (See list below) and has proved to be reliable and easy to start every time. Engine hours are approx 2,500. The 27 Coupe is a semi-displacement hull and is very easy to handle at sea, and for mooring and berthing, having the benefit of a bow thruster. The diesel engine is very economical and the fuel tanks have been cleaned and new inspection hatches installed in 2020. The boat draws just 90cm so can be anchored close to shore.
