2026 Nimbus Tender 8

The Nimbus Tender 8 is a 26-foot fiberglass cruiser powered by a single 200-horsepower Mercury diesel engine, delivering a cruising speed of approximately 35 knots. Compact and maneuverable, the boat combines day-cruising capability with overnight accommodation and is built around a wide walk-around deck that maximizes movement and boarding ease. The foredeck features a sunbed with seating for four, while a large hatch provides cabin access for loading.

The cockpit layout centers on clean design principles with optional 9- or 12-inch plotters. Reversible helm seats and a retractable table transform the forward area into a dining space for five. The aft sofa seats six with flexible positioning—upright for underway travel, angled for lounge use, or fully reclined as a sunbed. Beneath the aft sofa sit a retractable refrigerator and dedicated equipment storage, while the aft deck includes a shower outlet and two side storage lockers.

Below deck, a two-person berth with integrated ventilation and LED lighting provides sleeping quarters, alongside a separate head with sink and ample stowage. The galley features a retractable gas burner, with an optional wet bar and wash basin available on the port side. Three canopy configurations are offered: a harbor cover, helm canopy, or T-Top design that shelters the entire aft deck.
