Hi, has anyone got an idea of the fuel consumption and autonomy at cruising speed for a 3500 Express with CAT 3208-435? Thanks

nobody has replied, so I'll jump in. You should be able to get performance curves from Tiara. As a point of comparison, my 3700 gets .8 nmpg at 22knots with cummins 450Cs. Yours would not be much different, maybe .85 to .9nmpg.
Tiara 3700 Open, Cummins 6cta/450s

Our 40 express with the same engines gets .75 mpg@2200 rpm= 22mph.
.77 mpg at 2400 23.8 mph.
In our boat 2400 is the absolute sweet spot.
