Sport Tender 42















1 / 16THE VESSEL
The Nimbus Sport Tender 42 represents the most complete evolution of the successful Series 11, taking the concept of the Scandinavian day boat to a new dimension. Designed for demanding owners who prioritize quality, performance, and real functionality on board, the Sport Tender 42 combines a refined design with technical solutions designed to enjoy the sea with total confidence, both in fast navigation and at anchor.
The new Sport 42 Series introduces a renewed exterior design, with an enlarged double-mold swim platform, structurally integrated with the hull, which reinforces the direct connection with the water. The new stainless steel rail with a larger section and the distinctive Nimbus logo in polished steel provide a more solid and recognizable presence, maintaining the sober elegance characteristic of the Swedish shipyard.
On deck, the Nimbus Sport Tender 42 stands out for its redesigned helm station, with exclusive Nimbus seats that significantly improve ergonomics, lateral support, and comfort on long journeys. The new T-top, longer and wider, integrates solar panels and acrylic sections with sun protection, offering effective shade without compromising luminosity or visibility. As a great novelty, the folding bulwark on the starboard side expands the social space at anchor, transforming the cockpit into an authentic terrace on the sea.
The Sport Tender 42’s hull maintains the recognized twin-stepped hull with air lubrication, which guarantees dry, stable, and efficient navigation, even at high speeds. With high-level engine configurations—including twin Mercury V10 up to 425 hp—the Sport Tender 42 offers outstanding performance with safe and predictable handling. Joystick systems, bow thruster, and docking aids facilitate maneuvers in port, increasing safety and control in tight spaces.
Designed for intensive and versatile use, the Nimbus Sport Tender 42 is ideal for day trips, extended getaways, or use as a large yacht tender. Its walkaround layout, modular social spaces, and build quality make it a benchmark within the 12-meter premium segment.
Available on request at Nautic Luis, official Nimbus dealer in Empuriabrava, Costa Brava, the Nimbus Sport Tender 42 is the perfect choice for those looking for Scandinavian design, real innovation, and an uncompromising sailing experience.
