A 10.80-metre outboard day boat on a new air-lubricated twin-stepped hull, with fold-out balconies and two cabins that sleep five.
Start with the day, not the boat
Nimbus says a good day on the water is rarely about the person at the wheel, and that it designed the 35 around everyone else who came along. It is the first of three models on one hull: the Sport Tender, the Sport Weekender and the Sport Coupe.
Two decks that change through the day
The foredeck is a work surface for boarding and ropes, then opens into two sun lounges of about two metres each, with seating for eight. Aft, a U-sofa seats six on a frame built into the boat, and its three-part backrest folds flat into one sun bed or apart into a sofa.
A galley split in two, on purpose
The galley sits up in the cockpit and is split in two so the centre of the boat stays open and nobody has to go below to serve food or drinks. That open centre lets people move from bow to stern even with the canvas sides pulled out, and a 65-litre fridge sits to hand.
Two cabins that sleep five
Below there is room for two cabins sleeping five: a full-length double forward, two full-length berths in the mid-cabin and a sofa that takes a child. The head is spacious, with a shower, a toilet and a washbasin.
“We never start with the boat. We start with the day. Where do people sit, how do they move, what do they never want to think about.”
