The Maxi 1000 was designed for Nimbus by Pelle Peterson,
and was introduced in 1996. With quite a large sail area on
a relatively lightweight hull, plus a good ballast ratio,
she is very much a performance boat, although she is also
very easy to handle. The package is topped off with a very
well finished and comfortable cruising interior in cherry
joinery. The yacht illustrated here is fitted with non-standard
wheel steering - a tiller being the norm. She was replaced
with the slightly larger but similar styled Maxi 1100 in 1999 |
