Aquador 250 HT, a hard-top boat with many standard features

The Aquador 250 HT is the second model in the range of the Finnish shipyard of the same name, which has been attached to the Nimbus Group since 2018. At 8m in length, this hard-top boat offers a comfortable layout for short cruising and features a lot of standard equipment in a boat of only 8m.

A new range for Aquador

Aquador boats are produced by the Bella Boats shipyard, which became part of the Nimbus Group in 2018. The Finnish shipyard's new range, initiated by the launch of the 300 HT in August 2022 in Helsinki, will consist of 3 models, with the 250 HT presented at Düsseldorf 2023 and the Aquador 380 HT launched in 2025. It introduces a renewal for the brand, created 20 years ago.

New hull, new design, new construction method

The 250 HT with its 7.83 m length is similar in many respects to the 300 HT, in a reduced size. This new range is characterized by a rigid hard-top, which combines the advantages of a closed superstructure and an open deck plan. These new models also feature the new AquaDynamic hull, which allows for slower planning speeds, resulting in reduced fuel consumption at cruising speed. This new range has also been designed to be built in vacuum injection, again with a view to saving weight.

A boat for the small cruise

The Aquador 250 HT is a well-equipped hard-top boat, which makes it possible to envisage small cruising as a couple, even with a child.

It has a rear platform with extra wide swim skirts for entry and swimming. The transom serves as a storage area for the fenders. Steps, wider on the port side than on the starboard side, allow access to the gangways, whose reduced width is nevertheless secured by a high stainless steel balcony. Access to the foredeck is via the side passages, where there is a generous optional sunbathing area.

A comfortable cockpit to enjoy the outdoors in any weather

Access to the cockpit is through a high gate on the starboard side. In this space, there is an L-shaped square on the port side with a triangular table. Storage lockers are located under the seats. On the starboard side, a galley with storage space offers a large sink, an 85L refrigerator and a 1-burner diesel stove or an optional electric grill.

A spacious cockpit with good visibility

In the front, the spacious cockpit has a dashboard that can accommodate two optional 12-inch Simrad screens. A double bench seat with flip-up seats allows two people to pilot. Opposite on the port side, a comfortable seat with an armrest allows a third person to sit in the cockpit. Handrails allow for a standing position. A generous windshield protects the cockpit, which can be completely closed by adding a canvas.
