The 3500 Express has cockpit seating for 8, and with an optional aft-facing lounge seats 3 more. Other standard features include: Radar Arch / Integrated Swim Platform and Integrated Bow Pulpit / 95 cubic foot Transom Storage Trunk / and port & starboard Transom Entry Gates. Available in 2 Floor Plans - Plan A has a separate dinette (converts to double berth), full galley, aft lounge that converts to a queen berth (with privacy enclosure), queen-sized forward berth, and head with shower and molded-in sink/vanity. Plan B eliminates the port dinette in favor of a port galley, creating a private forward owner's stateroom with queen-size pedestal bed. As in Plan A, aft lounge converts to queen berth with privacy enclosure. The Plan B starboard head has access from both the salon and the owner's stateroom.

Additional Description

The 3500 Express offers a 30" Swim Platform as standard - an optional 48" Swim Platform is also available ... both with built-in Ladder. Other Options include: Aft-facing Fold-Down Lounge / Honey Ash Interior / Teak and Holly Cabin Sole / Air Conditioning / Plan B interior configuration.

Additional Description

The cockpit on the 3500 Express is designed for comfort and convenience. The helm is a “heads up” fiberglass tilt-away helm station with full flush mount electronics capability. The double wide helm seat with optional power adjustment is comfortable and sits high, providingf clear while idling or throttling up and cruising. The forward facing companion lounge, with tons of storage, sits right next to the helm seat and provides ample seating for four adults to enjoy the comfortable ride. There is chart storage, drink holders, and glove box adjacent to the helm, and the bronze acrylic sliding companion door with lock sits to the port side. Directly behind the companion lounge you can opt for a drop- down aft facing seat. A standard wet bar with sink and optional ice maker sits to starboard behind the helm seat. Across the transom there is a molded-in lounge with storage and a removable insulated cooler below. Dual molded-in transom steps with hinged S.S. gates make entering the cockpit easy, and standard cockpit lighting with remote feature ensures safe footing. There is a large transom storage trunk with approximately 95 cubic feet of storage space. A huge 48" swim platform with built-in folding ladder is typically opted for in place of the standard 30". The cruising arch with handrails, bimini top, and side curtains is also standard.

The standard Plan A floor plan has a master forward berth with storage below the bed, hanging locker, and additional storage. The convertible portside dinette seats five with a removable seat. The starboard galley features Corian countertops, recessed two-burner electric stove, S.S. sink, microwave oven, coffee maker, refrigerator/freezer, and lots of storage. A tall hanging locker separates the galley from the L-shaped lounge - which is also convertible to a queen-size berth and has a wrap-around privacy curtain. The full fiberglass head is to port and features molded-in sink with storage below, mirror, and vanity with storage compartment. As with all Tiaras, a solid teak and holly floor can be opted for to create a beautiful accent to this spacious living quarters.

Additional Description

The 3500 Express features a transferable 5 year limited warranty on the hull. It is constructed with a water barrier outer gelcoat layer and handlaid fiberglass with a special formulated resin. The stringers are made of a high grade marine ply-wood called “Tech-Lam” and encapsulated in handlaid fiberglass and integrated into the hull. The seacocks and all underwater thru-hull fittings are made of bronze, and there is molded-in deckside ventilation as well as a Quiet Tone underwater exhaust. The 3500 features six oval custom opening port lights with screens for plenty of air and natural light below.
