A Nimbus Max 2, 73 years old and designed by Peter Pettersson, is the subject of this owner profile.0:17 The Max 2 evolved from the original Max 1, which was built by Maxi as a production sailboat, before Pettersson developed the design further into a powerboat.0:17 Its key engineering feature is a self-leveling planing hull that sits completely flat in the water regardless of load distribution — a characteristic the owner describes as both a safety advantage and a comfort benefit.0:28 The model sold modestly in Norway but found strong popularity on Sweden's west coast, where used examples trade at high prices.0:07 The owner, based near the water, uses the 85-foot boat year-round, including as a chase and filming platform for Soling class racing at Hanko.1:38 He notes the hull generates minimal wake at low speed and maneuvers easily in close quarters.1:44 The boat accommodates groups for meals on deck, making it a regular social platform as well as a daily commuter across the fjord.1:39
