Overview The Nimbus T12 is a 12.70 m center-console tender designed for flexible dayboat and utility use. The latest evolution introduces significant exterior and ergonomic updates to improve onboard social space, access to the water and long-range comfort.

What’s new?

• Extended swim platform built in double-mould construction for structural integration with the hull and closer connection to the water.
• 40 mm stainless-steel railing and new hull décor with the Nimbus logo in polished chrome.
• Redesigned custom Nimbus helm seats with improved ergonomics and lateral support for reduced fatigue on longer passages.
• Wider and longer T-top that integrates solar panels and acrylic see-through sections with sunblock.
• Folding starboard side balcony to extend social space when at anchor.
• New aft-deck seating configuration with side cushions converting storage into additional seating areas.

Refinements across all models Ventilation, lighting, sound routing and serviceability have been refined throughout the 12 Series. Improvements include enhanced sound insulation, updated windscreen wipers, optimized illumination and optional inverter-powered air conditioning for quiet comfort at anchor.

Handling & Systems Mercury Joystick Piloting with integrated bow thruster is available for intuitive manoeuvring and system monitoring. Volvo Penta inboards are offered on Commuter 12 and Tender 12, and an assisted docking package with joystick control is optional. An optional hydraulic swim platform for outboards provides easier water access and can serve as a passerelle when moored.

The T12 evolution The T12 receives the most extensive updates within the series: redesigned T-top with integrated solar panels and see-through sections, the new side balcony and the option to fit dual Mercury V10 425 hp engines for significantly increased performance.
