New Owner of 3500 Open with 7.4 XLI/Velvet Drives. Looking forward to next summer and some ice to start to thaw. So far we have cleaned inside and out and top to bottom. Next task within the next two weeks is seat removal for upholstery. Samples arrived today. Time permitting name removal and upgraded radio prior to launch. Systems have been gone through and going to start fresh with fluids and general maintenance items. Only non operational repair would be the sending units for the fuel tanks. May add the Garmin fuel flow units while addressing that issue. Our boating runs will rarely exceed 2 hours one way (LI Area). Wanted the diesels but the price just was not justified for how much we will be using it. There is a peace of mind knowing I can make all repairs in the event there is an issue.
So far enjoying the Tiara Brand and quality.
