The Nimble 20 represents a masterclass in "pocket cruiser" design, blending the romanticism of a 19thcentury traditional doubleender with the performance efficiencies of a modern sharpie hull. Designed by the prolific Ted Brewer, the vessel was the flagship introduction for Jerry Koch’s Clearwaterbased Nimble Boat Works in 1985. It was conceived for the sailor who desires the aesthetic of a wooden classic but requires the lowmaintenance reality of fiberglass construction. With its distinctive highpeaked yawl rig and shallowdraft centerboard, the Nimble 20 was purposebuilt for the thin waters of the Florida Keys and the Chesapeake Bay, offering a level of character rarely found in production boats under 25 feet.
