A New Standard Arrives: Nimbus Boats, Coming Soon to Modern Yachts

 May 9, 2025

Scandinavian design. Built for the conscious yachtsman. Now making waves in New York.

Modern Yachts is proud to welcome Nimbus Boats — one of Europe’s most respected boatbuilders — to our growing lineup. Built in Sweden since 1968, Nimbus represents a new level of refinement, performance, and purpose-driven design for boaters in the Northeast.

Crafted for those who treat boating as a lifestyle, Nimbus delivers on every front. These boats are beautiful, but never just for show. Every detail serves a purpose — to create a ride that feels effortless, safe, and comfortable in any conditions.

Even better: Nimbus models are arriving soon to Modern Yachts locations on eastern Long Island, with exclusive sales availability across Long Island, New York City, and Westchester County.

Over 50 Years of Innovation, Now Docking in New York

Founded in Gothenburg, Sweden, Nimbus has earned a reputation for building boats that feel just as good to operate as they do to own. From the beginning, their mission was simple — create boats that are elegant, practical, and built to last.

Today, that legacy lives on through their advanced hull technology, user-first layouts, and DNV-certified construction. Nimbus boats are safe, quiet, and beautifully engineered for real-world use. They handle rough water with confidence and make even short trips feel special.

Most importantly, they’re designed around you — the boater. Whether you’re navigating the Peconic, cruising the Hudson, or relaxing near Fire Island, Nimbus makes the experience seamless and intuitive.

What’s Coming to Modern Yachts

T8 – Quick, sleek, and made for the moment

The T8 is a fast and fun day cruiser. It’s perfect for exploring, swimming, watersports, or simply anchoring up with friends. Designed for flexibility, it’s a go-anywhere, do-anything kind of boat.

W9 – Weekending made simple

The W9 is ideal for couples or families looking to spend longer days on the water. With cozy overnight accommodations and a sporty, modern feel, it’s built for both comfort and control.

T11 – Space for everything and everyone

With multiple lounging zones, walkaround decks, and a bold hull, the T11 is made for entertaining. Whether cruising to Block Island or hosting guests for sunset cocktails, it’s ready.

W11 – A true coastal traveler

The W11 is more than just a weekender. It’s a well-balanced cruiser that combines performance with practical design — great for relaxed escapes or covering serious distance in style.

C11 – Your all-season adventure vessel

The C11 is built for year-round comfort and control. With its enclosed helm, rugged build, and long-range capability, it’s perfect for Northeast boaters who cruise in every season.

Why Nimbus. Why Now.

In an increasingly crowded market, Nimbus stands apart. It’s not just about what the boats do — it’s how they feel. They invite you to slow down, to be present, and to explore with purpose. And with growing demand for premium, owner-friendly boats in the Northeast, there’s never been a better time to bring Nimbus to the waters of Long Island, NYC, and Westchester County.

As these models begin to arrive at our locations, we invite you to explore what sets Nimbus apart — not just in form, but in philosophy. These boats aren’t built to impress at the dock. They’re built to perform on the water, to age with grace, and to elevate every hour you spend afloat.

Stay Tuned

The first Nimbus boats are expected to arrive as early as next week — and we can’t wait to welcome you aboard. This is more than a brand launch; it’s the beginning of something special for boaters across Long Island, NYC, and Westchester.
