Performance to Fit the Boat
On the subject of performance, Dan Springer explained that "The Tiara 3000 Open with a standard 8.1 liter gas engine from Crusader and has a cruise speed of 28.5 knots and a top end of 35.5 knots or 41 mph. Cruise speed is very efficient at 24.5 knots with 200 miles of range."
Tiara Yacht's 300 Open selected Crusader Captain's Choice Series 8.1 MPI engine with a new multi-port fuel injected big block. It features GM’s latest in automotive technology adapted for the marine industry. Excellent for heavy duty applications, the 8.1 makes 385 horsepower.
Tiara delivers the right combination of power in a boat without overpowering the boat and wasting fuel. Engines are matched to the hull based on a performance target. The Tiara 3000 Open delivers excitement, excellent cruising speeds, acceleration and a wide open throttle speed right on target.
After taking a hard look at the new Tiara 3000, I think you will agree that she can be compared to boats two to three feet larger. Most of all, it's obvious that this Tiara is not a boat you want to leave sitting at the dock. Her performance characteristics are too good to go unused.

- Optimum Cruise: 27.6 mph @ 3200 rpm / 32.7 mph @ 3600 rpm
