Description

Present Tense combines Tiara’s most popular coupe design with a rare and desirable twin Cummins straight-shaft package paired with Cummins’ integrated joystick docking system.This configuration delivers the reliability and performance preferred by experienced cruisers — without the complexity or maintenance of pod drives.

A large swim platform, transom grill, outdoor refrigerator, retractable sunshade and expansive bow sun pad make her ideal for entertaining, while the massive transom trunk with powered door adds impressive storage for day trips, weekend getaways, or extended cruising.

Inside, the salon showcases modern Tiara styling, panoramic 360° views, and a powered sunroof that fills the space with natural light. Below deck, Tiara’s renowned craftsmanship continues with premium finishes throughout both cabins and heads.
