2000 Tiara 4300 Open Boat in Traverse City, MI 49684 US

2000 Tiara 4300 Open

Freshwater • Twin Caterpillar 3196 Diesels • 1,320 HP • Onan Generator • Traverse City, Michigan

Tiara has long been regarded as the gold standard in American-built express cruisers, and the 4300 Open is an excellent example of why. Tiara's reputation was built around solid construction, thoughtful engineering, excellent fit and finish, and hull designs that deliver a confident, comfortable ride in real-world conditions. The 4300 Open combines those qualities with a large cockpit, spacious accommodations and serious diesel power, making it equally capable as a Great Lakes cruiser, fishing platform or family yacht.

This 2000 4300 Open has been freshwater kept and is located in Traverse City, Michigan.

She is powered by twin Caterpillar 3196 diesel inboards, producing 660 HP each and 1,320 HP total. The port engine has approximately 1,200 hours, while the starboard engine was replaced this summer and has only approximately 43 hours.

The 4300 Open is a true multi-purpose platform, equally at home cruising, entertaining or fishing. Her 15'2" beam, substantial 29,500-pound dry weight and 167-square-foot cockpit give her the solid feel and working space expected from a Tiara of this size. The deep-V hull, 16-degree transom deadrise and substantial fuel capacity make her particularly well suited to Great Lakes cruising.

The boat also features an Onan diesel generator, updated electronics and newer Isinglass, both approximately four years old.

A very desirable combination of freshwater history, Caterpillar power, a recently replaced starboard engine ($50K) and a spacious, proven Tiara layout.
