Have a 2001 Tiara 40 Open.  Need to replace sending units in freshwater tank & holding tank & need length of each of the two sending units.  Most recent survey states that the boat has two, 160-gallon freshwater tanks (Florida Marine) . My access to the single sending unit is under the storage unit on starboard side of boat in the raised floor under the table.  Holding tank is listed as 57 gallons also from Floria Marine.  That tank access is under floor in rear of second berth. I called Florida Marine & was unable to get info. I am sure that I can open the tanks & dip a dowel, but any help will be appreciated.

Hi!

We are the new owners of a 2004 Tiara 3600 Sovran.  Our third week in and finally getting settled. Anyway the port side bow nav light is out and I thought it would be an easy task to swap out the bulb. I cannot figure out for the life of me how to get at the bulb.  I have removed the rear screw and popped off the chrome cover. After that the lenses don’t come out. So I tried removing the unit from the deck and removed the rear two screws and was able to slightly free it but it feels like there might be a third screw in front that I cant see/access.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

2004 35 Open with 8.1L Crusaders-2200 hours.   Last year, started noticing a slight vibration from 2400-2800 rpm during the process of achieving and coming off plane.  Balanced props last winter and vibration still noticed.  Engine alignments are in spec, no shaft run out, cutlass bearings look good.  Unable to determine which engine is creating the vibration.  Seems to be harmonics.  Been to two servicing marinas.  Vibration is worse with a full load of fuel, disappears with low load.  No vibration up to 2400, and no vibration while on plane to WOT.  I am the original owner and never hit anything.  Plan to pull props/shafts and have them inspected/balanced as a set and change cutlass bearings this off season.  Anyone else experience this or other suggestions?

These were previously rigged on a 2006 3600 Open.  They were lightly used and subsequently garage stored for years.  The RUPP serial no. is 20540.  I spoke with RUPP about these and they said they would be $7800 new.  Located in Annapolis, MD  $2500   Phone 410-570-4063 for more details and pics.  Thanks

I have a 1997 3100 open and the rubber covers on the helm switches need replacement.  Any thoughts on where I can fine these?

Anyone have a source for the switchplate covers?  Some of mine are faded and I was thinking about reverse engineering them and making them for myself ...

WAlready checked fluids but will be changing fluids and filter - multi second delay ( increasing ) on port engine in and out of gear, forward and reverse. 

Slight wine now as well. 

Thoughts ? Having our mechanic do a diag after service if it doesn’t solve it. 

05 open 1200 hours well maintained / open checkbook boat.

I am looking for a 2007 3600 Open Swim Platform. I have gotten estimates to have one made, which is what I will do if my search turns up empty. I want it so I can carry my dinghy on it. Thanks in advance.

Our 2800 Open has been quite the project since acquisition late 2018... I'll add a few before and now pictures to this thread in another posting.

There is still a long road to the absolute finish line (... are we ever REALLY there... lol...) but things are coming along very well and the boat should have another long while before needing another round of serious updating.

Aaaaannnnnnd the moment that I need to get some feedback from the collective hive mind has arrived.  Our hull did not come with the pass through molded into the pulpit for the anchor, so I recently had our local yard do some pulpit reinforcement and create the pass through for me.  Great structural work was performed on creating the pass, but my vision for an anchor ramp & roller assembly was not exactly completely realized from the yard, so it's time to acquire and install the hardware that is missing.  I knew I was going to be installing some kind of hardware, so the pass was only roughly finished for strength and encapsulation.

I'd love some feedback from anyone that knows what Tiara would have fit regarding the drop in anchor roller / windlass package from the factory if this option was ordered.

I'd also like to know if anyone has a photograph of the windlass plate pivoting anchor roller assembly from Tiara (photo attached) actually in operation as I have yet to find a vessel equipped with this part number unit.  Most all I have seen look to have an Anchorlift or similar drop in flush roller pocket fit through the pulpit.

Thanks for reading.  Fair winds to all.
