1999 Tiara Yachts 3500 OpenSold

What really sets this 3500 Open apart is how usable every inch feels once you’re aboard. The wide side decks and solid rails make it easy to move forward to handle lines or enjoy the sunset from the bow without feeling exposed. Storage is thoughtful rather than just abundant—deep cockpit lockers, smartly placed cubbies down below, and dedicated spots for rods, fenders, and water toys keep the boat tidy on longer weekends. Visibility from the helm is excellent, so you’re not craning your neck in tight marinas or when threading through a crowded anchorage. Underway, the hull’s solid feel inspires confidence when the afternoon chop builds and everyone else starts heading home early.

A Tiara 3500 Open is a great match for waters where conditions can shift quickly from glassy to lumpy in the same day. The wide beam and deep, secure cockpit give you the comfort to run outside when the forecast allows, yet its size is still friendly for smaller slips and tighter harbors. The layout works beautifully for mixed plans: early-morning fishing runs, sandbar raft‑ups, or quiet overnights on the hook. Air conditioning, a real galley, and a private stateroom make staying aboard feel more like a compact waterfront condo than a “day boat,” while the dependable diesel power keeps range and economy in your favor.
