The 1998 Tiara 3500 Express is a 35-foot fiberglass express cruiser known for its balanced design that works equally well as an offshore fishing platform, family cruiser, or light long-range boat. Powered by twin Cummins 6BTA 5.9L diesel engines rated at 370 hp each, the boat delivers reliable performance and cruising capability. The generous 13-foot beam provides stability and space, with a 42-inch bow pulpit and swim platform. The design combines classic styling with practical accommodations suited to extended time aboard.
The boat has undergone substantial recent mechanical and systems work. Major service includes new ZF marine transmission, rebuilt Holset turbocharger, new torsional coupling, serviced aftercoolers and heat exchangers, rebuilt raw water pump, crankshaft seal service, fuel polishing, complete cooling system overhaul, transmission and exhaust service, bottom paint with fresh Interlux antifouling, running gear and zinc replacement, and full skeg replacement. Additional work covers shaft and coupling service, updated exhaust discharge components, new shore power inlet with electrical diagnostics, engine room wiring cleanup, and fuel system cleaning.
Interior upgrades include newer Bimini top, updated cushions and upholstery, refreshed covers and soft goods, and new house and engine batteries installed within the last year. Equipment additions feature underwater lights, inverter, stainless steel swim platform rails, custom teak table, and an extra 35-gallon fresh water tank. Professional documentation of all service work is available.
