Nimbus Boats and Volvo Penta Unveil Assisted Docking with a Thrilling Adriatic Adventure
At Nimbus Boats, we’re excited to share Volvo Penta’s latest innovation in docking: the Assisted Docking system is now expanding to DPI sterndrives, bringing our boaters enhanced precision and control. Originally launched for Volvo Penta’s IPS, this cutting-edge docking technology now compensates for wind and current, providing a smoother, semi-automated docking experience to even more boaters.
In collaboration with Volvo Penta, we’re showcasing this impressive system on our Nimbus T11 in an exhilarating new adventure film. Set against the stunning Adriatic coast, the film features rock climber Britta-Kajsa Mårtensson navigating a cliffside ascent as our T11 demonstrates Volvo Penta’s Assisted Docking, capturing the essence of control and stability in every scene. This collaboration reflects the true spirit of Nimbus Boats—elevating the freedom of boating through *
As a trusted partner of Volvo Penta, we’re thrilled to bring this innovation to life. For the first time, this system will be available for twin DPI installations, with retrofit options also available for eligible boats.
Experience the world premiere of Assisted Docking for DPI at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show (FLIBS) from October 30 to November 3, where exclusive test drives will reveal the future of docking technology in action. Delivery is set to begin in early 2025.
