Broker's Comments

The Nimbus 3000 has a great reputation as a motor cruiser and is, as you would expect from Sweden, well built and very well designed and ideal for the Irish Sea!

Like many Scandinavian designs, the use of space is excellent - the wheelhouse contains the galley and a good size seating/dining area. The saloon area has ample storage and seating with access to the port side double berth cabin and the heads. The port side double does not have any cushions and I think the last two owners have only really used it for storage.

The aft cabin is accessed from the wheelhouse providing a well designed cabin with a good size double berth, plenty of storage, a built in wash basin hidden under a hinged lid and a vanity unit.
