Bottom Job Just Completed August 2025!

The Tiara 5200 Express incorporates advanced design, engineering, building, and finishing techniques to create new expectations in yacht construction. Hull fabrication involves vacuum-bagged lamination using epoxy resin instead of polyester. The process produces thinner, stronger, lighter GRP that won't absorb water, and it reduces hull weight by half. This unique process also produces strong but low-density PVC foam stringers, transversals, and balsa-cored bulkheads. Engine room access is concealed in the lower cockpit lounge seat, or the room can also be entered through the upper cockpit dropdown hatch. The large, distortion-free, curved-glass Taylor windshield panels provide uninhibited visibility astern as well as forward. The cool helm upper cockpit climate control system features two 16 ton A/C units to ensure maximum air conditioning in the hottest conditions. An optional set of forward shore power connections are available, mounted in the chain locker to make bow-in docking an easy choice.
