2025 Nimbus 305 Coupe

Hull design

The most important attribute on the 305 Coupe is the hull, which has been developed and optimized for speeds from 0 to 22 knots. The hull is designed to suit smaller engines such as the Volvo Penta D3 and the fully-electric Torqeedo, and built to run comfortably irrespective of speed. The hydro-dynamic shape of the hull means that the boat has no planing threshold at all.

“At Nimbus our belief is that a boat should run comfortably at the speeds at which it is used. We know that Coupé owners are fond of cruising at speeds

between 4 and 20 knots, which avoids producing a large wake and burning a lot of fuel. For the 305 Coupé we have designed a hull that rides comfortably throughout the entire speed range. In practice, the 305 has no real planing threshold and returns low fuel consumption at all speeds. Speed can be adjusted to weather conditions, which provides better safety, comfort and the best possible ride from which to appreciate your natural surroundings,” said Mats Jacobsson, product development manager at Nimbus.
