1995 Tiara Yachts 3500 Express

A 1995 Tiara 3500 Express, this 35-foot express cruiser combines the seaworthiness and style of Tiara's larger designs in a more nimble package. The boat sits on a modified-V hull with prop pockets and shallow keel, delivering stability in offshore conditions while remaining responsive in tight quarters. Twin Crusader 502 engines, each producing 380 horsepower, have been rebuilt—the starboard engine in 2020 and the port in 2021—and are fuel injected for reliable performance. A wide 13-foot, 9-inch beam makes the boat feel considerably larger than her length both above and below deck.

The cockpit accommodates eight in single-level seating, with ample storage and Tiara's signature transom trunk. A custom hydraulic swim platform serves multiple purposes, from tender stowage to a comfortable spot at anchor. Hydraulic lifts provide easy access to the engine room for service and inspection, and an aft garage with hydraulic opening adds practical storage. The helm includes modern electronics: Furuno radar and chart plotter with autopilot, a Hummingbird fishfinder, a 2021 Fusion radio with cabin and cockpit speakers, trim tabs, and a remote searchlight.

Below deck, the forward master stateroom pairs with a large lounge cabin that converts to a sleeping area, while a removable pedestal dinette can seat five or transform into a double bed. The galley features a NORCOLD refrigerator and freezer, Princess cooktop and microwave, and a new hot water tank installed in 2021. A Vacuflush head, two self-contained air-conditioning units with heat, and a ProSine inverter/charger complete the interior. New canvas was installed in 2025, and a hydraulic dinghy lift system added in 2021.
