Swedish leisure motorboat manufacturer Nimbus Group has announced that Christina Evans now has taken up the position of deputy CEO.
The news of Evans’ appointment was first confirmed in June 2025.
Evans was most recently chief commercial officer at Finnish motorboat manufacturer Axopar, where she has worked since 2021. In her new role as deputy CEO, she will oversee Nimbus Group’s recently established commercial sales division.
Her career background also includes senior roles within the automotive sector, notably at Volvo Trucks.
The news continues a leadership shakeup at Nimbus, which recently appointed Johan Inden as its new chief executive officer, after Lindström informed the board earlier this year of his intention to retire.
In addition to her responsibilities as deputy CEO, Evans will take over leadership of Nimbus Group’s commercial sales division. The current head of the unit, Nicklas Bergström, is leaving the company.
Nimbus Group designs and markets powerboats under the brands Alukin, Aquador, EdgeWater, Falcon, Flipper, Nimbus and Paragon Yachts. Its largest markets are the Nordic region, Europe and the US.
The company acquired US-based EdgeWater Power Boats in 2023. It employs 377 staff across operations in Sweden, Finland, Poland, England, Norway and the US.
Nimbus Group reported a 13 per cent decline in net sales for the first quarter of 2025, amounting to SEK 300m (£23.4m), compared to SEK 344m (£26.8m) during the same period in 2024. Organic growth was also negative at -13 per cent, with the firm attributing ongoing economic uncertainty to the figures.
