2003 – Nimbus 320 Coupe with a Yanmar 4L4-STE, 230 HP engine

From the long-established, highly regarded Nimbus range of powerboats the Nimbus 320 Coupe is an ideal coastal cruiser. She provides comfortable and spacious accommodation for a crew of 6 with a sea-kindly hull which cruises economically in displacement mode while capable of 20+ knots when required.

We are pleased to present ‘FADO,’ a Nimbus 320 Coupe. Built from a Swedish yard, Nimbus boats are renowned for design quality, build and outstanding sea-keeping abilities. The offset double berth in the forward cabin is extremely spacious along with a good sized double berth guest cabin. The light, airy and versatile saloon offers excellent visibility from the helm. Well protected spacious cockpit with plenty of seating and storage. Powered by a single Yanmar 230hp diesel engine with shaft drive. The engine was fully serviced in October 2025 along with other works costing just over £9,500.00.
