Five boats show different sides of Nimbus

Nimbus lists the Sport Tender 35, Sport Tender 42, Weekender 9, Weekender 11 and 495 Flybridge for its 2026 Genoa display. The combination gives visitors a broad look at how the Swedish builder applies its Scandinavian design approach across several styles of boating.

For Luxury Yacht Guide readers, the 12.4-metre Sport Tender 42 and larger 495 Flybridge are the most relevant models. The smaller boats provide useful context, showing how Nimbus develops similar priorities around practical circulation, protection and social use at different scales.

The 495 Flybridge anchors the cruising end

Nimbus describes the 495 Flybridge as a long-distance voyager intended to extend the Nordic Coupe concept into a larger cruising platform. Its presence in Genoa gives Mediterranean buyers a chance to inspect a model developed for extended journeys rather than short day trips alone.

That makes the yacht a useful counterpoint to the open and walk-around boats elsewhere on the stand. Buyers can compare the advantages of enclosed long-range comfort with the lighter, more activity-focused layouts represented by the Sport Tender and Weekender families.

Sport Tender 35 makes its Italian premiere

The Sport Tender 35 is receiving its Italian premiere at Genoa, giving the show an additional launch element beyond the established models. Nimbus positions the new boat as a Scandinavian sport cruiser built around comfort, practical living and easy movement aboard.

Although the 35 sits below LYG's 12-metre lower limit, its debut still matters because it shows the direction of Nimbus's newer Sport Cruiser design language. That thinking is also relevant to buyers considering the larger Sport Tender 42 within the luxury-yacht category.

Genoa gives the range Mediterranean exposure

Nimbus is exhibiting from 1 to 6 October 2026 at Banchina A, Stand BA58. The Italian show gives the company direct access to owners who may use their boats very differently from customers in its traditional Nordic markets.

By presenting both enclosed cruising and open social formats, Nimbus can demonstrate how its range adapts to warm-weather Mediterranean use without abandoning its emphasis on safety and functionality. The five-model fleet therefore provides a useful snapshot of the brand's current breadth.
