2026 Nimbus 495 Flybridge

The 2026 Nimbus 495 Flybridge is a 49-foot fiberglass cruiser built for extended voyaging and exploration. Powered by twin Volvo diesel engines producing 1,300 horsepower, the boat combines long-range capability with the handling characteristics that suit both tight Nordic waters and open-ocean passages. The design emphasizes self-sufficiency, with fuel, water, and waste capacity dimensioned for weeks of comfortable cruising without reliance on shore infrastructure.

The layout accommodates three cabins, providing sleeping and living space for families or couples planning extended passages. The flybridge offers command and relaxation in a design that balances ease of handling for two crew with comfort for larger groups on long-distance voyages.

This model is offered as a customizable platform, with the ability to configure systems, layouts, and equipment to match specific cruising plans and preferences. The boat is designed to perform equally well in challenging Nordic archipelagos and on longer explorations in warmer climates such as the Mediterranean or the U.S. East Coast.
