"Nimbus" Can Take You Anywhere
The Taswell 49 was designed by renown blue water yacht designer Bill Dixon, and was built by the legendary Ta Shing Yacht Yard in Taiwan. Ta Shing is the same builder of Nordhavn, Mason, Toshiba, and many other well respected, heavily built brands. Ta Shing is still building top of the line vessels to this day.
Nimbus is especially striking with her black and gold Awlgrip hull paint. Three staterooms, and two heads with separate shower stalls. She's got a fin keel and a skeg hung rudder that allows for easy tacking and straight and steady tracking. She is rigged as a cutter, making her very versatile and safe in adverse weather conditions. The center cockpit is the most comfortable location to pilot from being the center axis of the vessel. Her reverse transom with molded stairs makes boarding easy. She has never had teak decks!
Nimbus is hull # 14, and she has been carefully upgraded over the years. She is strong and safe, with a comfortable center cockpit and a wonderful aft deck. Her salon and galley are perfectly arranged for cruising, and her massive aft stateroom with dedicated head and separate shower is luxurious. There is plenty of room for a family and guests with two additional staterooms, and another full head with separate shower.
In 2010 she was fitted with a NEW 63' ICW friendly mast with a state of the art Leisure Furl in-boom mainsail furling system powered by an electric winch. Handling the full batten mainsail is simple, and can be done single handed. She received all new standing rigging at that time as well.
