Nimbus Group AB (publ) boat Nimbus 495 Flybridge has won the prestigious European Powerboat of the Year 2025 Award in the category powerboats up to 18 meters. The Award is considered as one of the industry’s most prestigious and its jury consists of test drivers and editors-in-chief of eight leading European motorboat magazines with one million monthly readers. The award was announced at the ongoing international boat show Boot Düsseldorf where the Nimbus 495 Flybridge participates for the first time.
Nimbus 495 Flybridge is the largest Nimbus boat to date and was first presented at Boot Düsseldorf two years ago. The boat has received great interest from both the media and customers ever since and was shown publicly for the first time at the Cannes International Boat Show in September last year.
In its motivation for the award the jury states: “The hull of the 495 Flybridge was designed for low fuel consumption and hybrid propulsion solutions, making the boat highly efficient. Its well-known high-quality craftsmanship and innovative spatial design make the Nimbus 495 Flybridge the ideal touring vessel”.
”The interest in the 495 Flybridge has been enormous ever since we first presented it. With Nimbus 495 Flybridge we enter a new and very exciting segment. This award is excellent proof that we have truly achieved our goals for this boat”, says Michael Bohm, CMO for the Nimbus Group.
