Three Nimbus models for Dock C

Nimbus says the Weekender 11, Tender 11 and Weekender 9 will be available at the 2026 Annapolis Powerboat Show from 8 to 11 October. The builder has placed the display on Dock C, where visitors can compare three different expressions of its Scandinavian design philosophy.

The model mix covers day cruising, weekend use and walk-around versatility rather than concentrating on a single ownership style. That makes the display useful for buyers deciding whether enclosed comfort, open deck circulation or compact dimensions matter most in their next yacht.

The 12.4-metre Tender 11 broadens the choice

Nimbus describes the Tender 11 as a 12.4-metre walk-around designed for excursions and social use, with space for up to 12 people. Its layout places a strong emphasis on movement around the deck while still providing seating oriented safely for higher-speed passages.

That combination is relevant to LYG buyers who want a yacht large enough for serious coastal use without moving into the operational demands of a much larger motor yacht. The Tender 11 remains comfortably inside the sub-24-metre sector while offering meaningful day-cruising capacity.

Weekender models target relaxed private cruising

The Weekender 11 is positioned as a cruiser for owners who want to extend weekends and travel farther with family or friends. The smaller Weekender 9 carries the same broad idea in a more compact package, giving show visitors a useful comparison of how Nimbus scales the concept.

For buyers, this side-by-side presentation should make differences in accommodation, cockpit volume and handling easier to understand than a specification sheet alone. It also gives existing Nimbus owners a chance to assess whether moving up in size offers enough practical benefit.

Annapolis adds another US market touchpoint

The Annapolis Powerboat Show is an important East Coast event and gives Nimbus direct access to owners who cruise Chesapeake Bay and the wider Atlantic seaboard. The setting suits boats designed around coastal versatility, weather protection and manageable private operation.

Nimbus will also have product experts available during the show, according to the official event page. That gives prospective owners a chance to discuss configuration, intended use and dealer support while viewing the boats in a real marina environment.
