Nimbus 305 Coupe

Nimbus 305 Coupe Boat Overview

The Nimbus 305 Coupe is proof that you don’t need a big boat to have space out on the water. This compact cruiser packs in the comfort and clever thinking you’d expect from something twice its size, wrapped up in the clean Scandinavian styling Nimbus is known for. If you’re heading out for a Saturday afternoon or a full multi-day cruise, the 305 Coupe is built to keep up.

Families, sociable sailors and die-hard boaters all get on well with this one. And the real magic isn’t just what you see on deck – it’s what Nimbus has done below it.

The standout feature of the Nimbus 305 Coupe is its hull, engineered to run smoothly anywhere between 0 and 22 knots. No lurching onto the plane, no awkward in-between speeds where the boat just doesn’t feel right. It simply glides, whatever throttle setting you choose.

This hull design suits smaller engines nicely, including the Volvo Penta D3 and the fully electric Torqeedo, so you get a comfortable ride without needing to overpower the boat.

As a result, Coupe owners tend to cruise between 4 and 20 knots, avoiding the fuel drain and wash of higher speeds. The 305 Coupe was shaped around that habit. Because there’s no real planing threshold to speak of, fuel consumption stays low across the speed range – and that means you can adjust your pace to match the conditions on the day. That means better safety, a smoother ride, and more time to actually enjoy the scenery instead of fighting the water.

The 305 Coupe joins Nimbus’s well-loved Coupe line-up alongside the 365 and 405, sharing the same design DNA and the brand’s signature “sidewalk” layout.

The sidewalk advantage

Nimbus’s sidewalk design gives the starboard side deck extra width, so moving from bow to stern is easy and getting on and off the boat is genuinely straightforward, not a balancing act.

Because that layout frees up space elsewhere, the cockpit, saloon, lower deck and cabin all feel roomier than you’d expect from a boat this size. A large flush-fitted sliding door on the starboard side rounds things off nicely, giving quick access when docking and letting you manoeuvre the boat from the side deck without having to duck back into the cockpit.

A helm built around you

The helm is designed to be tailored to how you actually boat, with accessories and equipment options to suit your preferences. Glued windows and a sweeping curved windscreen give you a proper panoramic view, so you’re never squinting to see where you’re going.

Systems & Comfort

Saloon and galley: light, airy, and made for socialising

Step into the saloon, and the light is the first thing you’ll notice. A large glass roof and roof hatches flood the space with natural light, while thoughtful material choices and LED lighting keep things feeling open rather than cramped.

The dinette seats four comfortably for a meal, and then converts easily into a double berth when needed. The table folds down into a cocktail table with glass holders too, so the saloon shifts effortlessly from dinner spot to social hub.

The galley holds its own, with a ceramic gas hob, integrated ventilation, a Corian worktop and a 65-litre fridge. Need more storage? An optional extra fridge/freezer box tucks neatly below the sofa.

Aft deck: built for lounging

Level with the swim platform and saloon, the aft deck features a generous L-shaped sofa with modular seating for five. The folding cocktail table with glass holders and stainless steel handles makes this the natural gathering spot once the anchor’s down.

Cabins designed to feel bigger than they are

Space and light define the interior of the 305 Coupe. Integrated ventilation and five large opening portlights keep air moving and light flowing, while upholstered bulkheads in light tones help dampen noise below deck.

You get two cabins: an owner’s cabin (choose between a Queen bed or V-berth layout) and a guest cabin, sharing a single head with shower.

Built in Sweden, built to last

Every Nimbus 305 Coupe is built at the Nimbus yard in Mariestad, Sweden. The textiles on board are chosen to look good and hold up, standing firm against sun, salt water and everyday wear. Sunbrella fabric is available as an option for owners after extra resilience against UV and harsh conditions, and cushion covers are machine washable, because nobody wants to hand-wash boat cushions.

FAQs

What’s the top speed of the Nimbus 305 Coupe?
The 305 Coupe is engineered to run comfortably from 0 to 22 knots, without the usual planing threshold most boats fight through. That means a smooth ride whether you’re pottering along at 5 knots or opening up to cruising speed.

Does the Nimbus 305 Coupe have a planing hull?
Not in the traditional sense. Its hydrodynamic hull design eliminates the typical planing threshold altogether, so there’s no awkward transition speed. The boat rides comfortably across its entire speed range, which also helps keep fuel consumption down.

How big is the Nimbus 305 Coupe?
The 305 Coupe has an overall length of 10.07m (33ft) and a beam of 3.25m (10ft 8in), making it a compact but genuinely spacious cruiser for its class.

Is the Nimbus 305 Coupe suitable for overnight trips?
Yes. With two cabins, a shared head with shower, a well-equipped galley and a dinette that converts to a double berth, the 305 Coupe is built for weekends away as much as day trips.
