Interior

It was raining for the first set of shots so we will get some more done around the outside once it stops.. The owner was in the habit of keeping boats very well indeed, and this boat is no exception, when we collected her she was under a purpose built strong back cover arrangement for the winter.  and had a full coat of "unpolished wax" ALL over her, ( like in the Med) so we have now polished that off and she looks quite superb.

forward cabin, hatch over with blinds built in, warm "Kaya" Mahogany with louvered doors, stowage under berth, and good lockers each side of bed..

port side forward, door left is to large en-suite.

excellent space here, with door to shower area. stainless basin out of shot behind door..

from lobby, looking in to port double cabin, usual smart Nimbus artwork.., note hot air outlet just by power socket,

not much standing room, but berth is fair size..

looking in to stb cabin, dressing seat,

looking aft, there is and infill cushion if required.. hot air outlet..

Stowage under berths,,

Day head is just forward of stb cabin,, clean smart style..

looking down forward from wheelhouse/ saloon,

superb dash area set to starboard, opening door alongside is a boon, electric huge deck hatches over head are wonderfull as well.

Seat IS clean .. it is just nap on cloth,,,note the steering wheel will tip on base which is handy should you wish to steer standing up..

there is a fold out step and with the forward cushion folded up you can stand,, with head out of the roof..Notice domestic breaker panel under..

spacious co-pilot seat, so together you can easily seat four adults looking forward at the horizon together which is very helpful as well as social.. good chart area, obvious side door, and good view of huge deck hatch.. This seat does the usual Nimbus trick of rolling aft to become part of the dinette

table leaf folded up, low window line allows good view out of the saloon..

History One owner from new, from UK importers in October 2007. kept ashore each winter, (covered) fully dealer serviced, and used lightly from new. We have copies of the various test reports carried out, do please ask for one...
Broker's Comments Fantastic piece of kit... I was smiling all the way back to Hythe, 27 knots, and emotionally we were being "gentle with her"... so quiet it is not necessary to raise your voice at all.. handles like a big Rib,,, with family accommodation and a superb spacious cockpt ( full canopy as well) , easy, safe decks, easy access around and aboard the boat... These boats or rather the new Nova 43 is around £430,000.... so this boat is quite a saving and she has had the top knocked off her value now...

Hythe Marina £298,000Vat paid..
