Description
** A rare Nimbus 280 Familia **
Nimbus boats are recognised for their Scandinavian build quality, and the Nimbus 280 Familia is no exception, offering safe, comfortable boating whether that is coastal cruising or inland waterways.
The “Familia” version of the popular Nimbus 280 benefits from the addition of an aft cabin, which is a clever design feature due to the fact the boat still maintains a very spacious layout, while providing two separate cabins on a 28ft boat.
Being able to comfortably sleep up to five people, along with a spacious, light and airy feel when onboard, the 280 Familia is an ideal family boat, while also being a capable coastal cruiser, or just as good for fun days out on the water with family & friends.
This Nimbus 280 Familia “Sylvania” is a 2005 build, 2006 model year, and is a very nice example, having been well maintained by the current owners, and is in very good order throughout.
“Sylvania” benefits from a service and maintenance history with the engine being serviced in March this year, 2025, along with anodes changed and a protective coating applied to the prop and rudder.
