2026 Nimbus 495 Flybridge

The Nimbus 495 Flybridge is a 49-foot fiberglass cruiser built to travel far and live aboard for extended periods. Twin 1,300-horsepower Volvo diesel engines power the boat, which combines Nordic design with the range and self-sufficiency needed for serious exploration. The layout spans three cabins, providing comfortable accommodation for families or couples undertaking long voyages or extended cruising in remote areas.

The 495 is engineered as a true expedition platform. Fuel and water tankage are sized for covering significant distances and anchoring in natural harbors without concern for resupply. The design prioritizes both seaworthiness in challenging conditions and the comfort required for weeks at sea, whether exploring the Mediterranean, the U.S. East Coast, or Nordic archipelagos. The beam of nearly 15 feet contributes to stability and interior volume.

The boat accommodates extensive customization to match individual cruising plans and preferences, allowing owners to configure systems, layouts, and equipment according to their specific requirements and experience level.
