Introducing 'Helga', a 2009 model year Nimbus 380 Coupé - the perfect cruiser, beautifully maintained and presented for sale in excellent condition.
Helga offers a comprehensive specification and has enjoyed all the love a boat such as this deserves. Serviced, antifouled, and polished, this fantastic vessel has been looked after and cherished all her life. She is probably one of the best examples of a Nimbus 380 Coupe in the UK and one of the best in Europe.
Boasting the more desirable and larger D4-300 engines with only 620 hours run to date, she is also equipped with both bow and stern thrusters which are remote-controlled, enabling excellent maneuverability and very easy berthing. Helga has been maintained to the highest standard with over £102,000 of invoices and receipts.
This wonderful Coupe cruiser is an excellent family boat with masses of space, is very comfortable, and has superb handling at sea.
Available for viewing at Conwy Marina, North Wales, LL32 8GU.
