1983 O'day 39

"NImbus" is a meticulously maintained O'Day 39 designed by Phillip Briand and modeled after the Jeanneau Sun Fizz. This vessel is built to withstand heavy conditions while offering comfortable and spacious cabin layouts. Over the last 25 years, "NImbus" has sailed the Great Lakes, participating in multiple races to Mackinac. The cruiser features three cabins and two heads, with a convertible salon table that can be turned into a fourth berth. A privacy door can create a primary berth at the bow. Over the past few years, "NImbus" has undergone significant upgrades to prepare for open-water cruising. These upgrades include a new autopilot, AGM batteries, B&G radar, and much more. The new owners embarked on a journey from Lake Michigan to Charleston, SC, cruising along the Intracoastal Waterway (ICW) and venturing offshore. Their adventure highlights the vessel's seaworthiness and readiness for extended voyages. "NImbus" is now turnkey ready for its next adventure, promising reliability and comfort for future owners.
