Tiara Quality - Joystick Piloting - Low Hours
Watch Aerial Video To See The Boat In Action!!
This Sovran continues the Tiara Yachts tradition of quality and engineering that takes full advantage of Volvo IPS technology, including the new IPS joystick control for superior handling, noise and fume reduction, and fuel efficiency. The full complement of IPS technology delivers 360-degree direction control at your fingertips. Its living space is well thought out and fitted out with traditional Tiara Yachts attention to quality, seaworthiness and lasting value.
The Tiara 3900 Sovran can easily be handled by a cruising couple and yet can also accommodate when the whole gang comes onboard.
The cabin is full of match grained teak. The salon is open and bright even considering the extensive use of teak on the cabinetry, sides and flooring. Two floor hatches offer access to tanks and other systems. To port is a dinette with a gorgeous inlaid dining table before a three-seat couch. The seatback lifts and hooks on straps to make a single berth while the seat cushion makes a second berth.
There are three storage lockers over the dining area along with two very serious looking opening Bomar port holes. These are the real thing with thick frames and screw down dogs. There is also a cedar-lined hanging locker in the salon with the fire extinguisher inside.
The galley is on the starboard side with a very big expanse of counter space when all the filters are in place. It's a composite top with a Kenyon two-burner stove top, trash container and a very large, round stainless-steel sink, all with fillers. Overhead are four lockers including one which carries the waste tank level indicator. Fiddles along the hull side past the two Bomar port holes keep your spices from sliding around. This is a great galley for the size of this boat.
The forward or master statement carries on that elegant curved design, this time with rolling door panels on tracks that have a locking foot release. There is a big Bomar deck hatch with screens to let in lots of daylight, side lockers and a big drawer underneath the berth. The berth also lifts for large item storage, giving a place to store cushions like the one that goes to the cockpit as a filler to make up another sleeping area.
There is an open mid-cabin which includes a Bose sound system and a flat screen television, but the highlight here is the electric couch mechanism; press a button and it slides slowly forward to make up another big double berth. There is storage under the seat cushions and although the area is fairly low, it makes a comfortable conversation pit.
There's a single head one step down from the salon floor level. The door has a magnetic latch to hold it open and the head enjoys about 6' 4' of height. It's equipped with a very nice vessel sink and a perfectly positioned shaving or make-up mirror on the bulkhead. Again, there is an opening Bomar hatch, plus a vacuum flush head, lots of elegant teak trim and very nice hardware and faucets.
The shower stall has a clear acrylic door. There's a seat as well as standing headroom and three big handrails in case the boat is rocking when you're trying to have a shower.
Moving outside, there is a hand-held shower with hot and cold running water at the transom by the swim platform. The boat is seriously equipped for salt water use and has an aggressive, diamond-patterned nonskid floor, although the test boat also had removable carpeting which adds comfort. The wide side decks are the same diamond nonskid pattern to facilitate going forward. If you're stepping onboard from the side, you can grab a cabin-mounted handrail, but most people will prefer to step on the swim platform from a floating dock.
Tiara includes a generous trunk in the transom with storage for lines and fenders as well as the fresh and the raw water wash down. Electrical connections are on the port side along with Glendinning cable masters. The lid has a gasket to make sure that water doesn't intrude. The front deck features a moulded-in pulpit with remote control spotlight, Danforth anchor, big cleats and an anchor locker, all surrounded by a fully welded stainless-steel bow rail.
There is a sun pad on the deck for tanning and we were impressed by the three huge windshield wipers. The cabin glass areas are quite large. We also appreciated the huge engine room vents in the sides and the little touches like the cabin roof handrail being white instead of stainless steel so as not to detract from the styling.
To ward off reflections in those big windshield sections, the dashboard top is finished in black and the center windshield section opens electrically; an overhead hatch increases cockpit and helm ventilation.
The helm seat is electric and has a very long range of travel. Adding to driver comfort is a two-level foot rest for standing or sitting and the large glass areas give a panoramic view in all directions.
The performance was strong too. The Tiara 3900 Sovran gets on plane quickly and does not point skyward offering great visibility, even driving from a seated position.
The companion seat is high to give passengers a great view, there's a removable table for the companion side too; Tiara has placed Imtra LED overhead and foot lighting throughout the boat for convenience and safety.
From the bridge level, it's down a step to the cockpit by the refreshment center. This has a Nova Kool refrigerator, a sink, trash area and more.
Overall, this is a comfortable, well laid out boat for a couple that can be easily be converted to sleep two adults in the mid cabin, two more in the salon and two more adults under the stern curtain, if you wanted a full house.
The Tiara 3900 Sovran is easy to handle thanks to the Volvo Penta IPS and joystick docking, so two people can manage it easily and the turn of speed puts distant anchorages within easy range.
This boat is on land under clear shrinkwrap and we welcome you to see your next boat. Just contact us to make an appointment.
