2024 Nimbus Tender 9

The 2024 Nimbus Tender 9 is a 30-foot fiberglass cruiser built for day trips and overnight stays. Powered by a single Mercury 400 hp gasoline engine, it reaches a cruising speed of 35 knots and a maximum speed of 43 knots. The stepped hull design keeps the planning threshold low, making the boat responsive and efficient across a range of speeds.

The open layout centers on a spacious aft deck with a U-shaped sofa that seats five and converts into a sunbed. The foredeck includes a large loading hatch with optional daybed seating for four. Optional amenities include a wet bar with hand basin and portable grill mounted behind the helm. The boat can be fitted with a harbor cover, spray hood, or T-top canopy, and the helm accepts single or twin chart plotters up to 16 inches.

Below deck, sleeping quarters consist of a large two-berth cabin with integrated ventilation and ample stowage, plus a separate head with sink. The design philosophy prioritizes flexibility—the boat performs equally well for cruising, water sports, overnight accommodation, or as a tender to a larger yacht.
