The 50Express incorporates flawless design, engineering, construction, and finishing techniques that reflect her Tiara heritage. The 50Express also embraces new technology, resources, and materials that enable her to reach beyond that heritage - establishing new parameters in design and construction. For style and comfort, offers 2 Floor Plans. Plan A features a huge salon with dinette, opposing lounge/entertainment center, aft galley, guest/day head, large owner's stateroom (with private head), and a completely private guest stateroom (with entry to guest/day head).

The cockpit is designed around functionality and comfort. To port a large Lounge sits six comfortably, with plenty of stowage below. The adjacent dual Admiral Stidd helm seat features 8" of forward and vertical movement and has a backrest that reclines 20 degrees. The helm is all Tiara - with plenty of open space for electonics and tilts aft to provide easy access to wiring. A standard wet bar is just aft of the helm, featuring sink with cutting board, glass and bottle stowage, ice maker, refrigerator, and 120V outlet. The lower cockpit has molded-in forward and aft-facing seating, plus a convenient retractable floor table that also converts to a huge sun pad. A handy transom storage trunk features 100 cubic feet of easy access storage. And the standard 60" swim platform includes a recessed hand rail and concealed slide-out S.S. swim ladder.

This timeless classic Tiara Express was recently donated to a reputable maritime institution. Therefore ownership can only be achieved via a lease with an option to buy after a 36 month lease period. The terms of the lease/option are very accommodating for the right yachtsman. Vessel has had the Aft fuel tank replaced August 2023. CATS just had the 1,000 check in 2022, generator removed, rebuilt & reinstalled with new pan.

The lease/purchase requires a one third payment to take possession followed by 12 quarterly installments over a 36 month lease (no interest) equal to one third of the agreed selling value. Upon completion of the 36 month (12 quarterly payments) lease the lessee can opt to take title by paying the remaining third of the agreed selling price. Lessee will be required to maintain insurance indemnifying lessor throughout the lease.
