Jack you’re so right. The Scandi design is fantastic. I love the glass enclosure in the cockpit. My favourite medium cruiser of 2024. Excellent.👌

[rtbinc]

I keep being amazed by the simple quality of the photography of the boats. I'm a little old to do the clambering around the engine room - but that is what children are for.

[clifbradley]

What an awesome mini yacht. Super clever. Galeon-esque

[nicbennett]

Brilliant tour of a fantastic boat.
Can’t wait for the sea trial.

When I first started watching these videos, all I wanted to see was the really big and lavish super yachts. However, after watching Jack drive the smaller boats that are beautiful in their own right, I am far more interested those types of videos. Seeing boats with nice interiors that have great performance capabilities (speed / maneuverability) is far more exciting to observe.

Wow, impressed with all the premium features they managed to fit into such a small footprint! Would love to see what they can do with a larger size.

[Finderskeepers.]

Excellent presentation. I like the honesty of pointing out issues like the heat of the teak or head height gets restricted on one side of the master. What a boat, practical design, great functionality and looks great. So much in it but smart like dropping the height over the seating area and so keeping the overall height and windage down.

[paulwalker]

Great video Jack. I really love your obvious enthusiasm for the clever design touches. It's amazing how builders keep finding new solutions for storage and ease of use. This is a masterpiece, clearly built by people who enjoy boating and want to build the boat they would like to live with.

I always love your yacht tours Jack, but I love them. The Best is when you’re way out in the middle of the ocean. there are a few less distractions. Love Scandinavian boats.

[FlyWithMe_]

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that this Scandinavian boat is just under 15M/50 feet. This means that (at least here in Norway) you could operate it with a simple boating license you can do in a day (only theory), or even no license at all if born before 1980.

Another cracking video Jack, it looks like your type of boat mate, comfortable, functional, good indoor outdoor flow!

[VincenzoValenti]

I watched so many videos about this boat! It's an amazing design indeed. The twin cabin can be transformed into an office if required. Great review as always!

[stephenwoolley]

Brilliant, thank you Jack I was so excited to see this on here today really interesting boat ticks so many boxes for me I really don't think there is any compromise, unbelievable at least than 50'.

[seanogden]

Definitely a great boat this one, some really clever design features and quite spacious through out for its size. Great tour Jack thank you.

[keithhughes]

A nice, wel thought out boat. Well done Nimbus.

[Nezzer]

So glad you've reviewed this Nimbus Jack 👍
It was on my (too long) list of requested reviews lol.
I think this is a fabulous boat, better than many much bigger rivals.
I'm saving your review until i can see it on a big screen, though 👍😆

[maryholder]

About a month ago, i gave this boat ✅✅✅✅✅✅. On this second look as the best boat of 2024, I still liking very much. That drop down window in cockpit is absolutely great. Its quiet, sun protection and privacy for guests amd owners. Nice comfortable cabin, she a non fussy boat, what you see is what you get. Very useful and eell designed yacht .

[JustZPlease]

Great video and you really kept you promise! Great video and my favorite boat!!! I think the best boat in his class with great details and a the best design ever!

[johnwoodward]

I was always a fan of the Nimbus 340 Commander but this 495 is just amazing.

Fantastic boat. In many respects and in 90% of conditions I’d prefer it over the large Sargo, Targa and NordStar offerings, given its superior accommodation . Looks good value, relatively.
