1997 Tiara Yachts 41

Step aboard and you’ll notice how this 41 has been set up by someone who truly uses their boat. The helm layout is clean and thoughtfully arranged, with sightlines that make long runs far less tiring. Wide, secure side decks and substantial rails give confidence when moving forward to handle lines or drop the hook. In the cockpit, there’s ample room to rig for a serious offshore trip or just spread out the bean bags and enjoy a lazy cruise. Below, the joinery still has that solid, old-school Tiara feel—doors that close with a reassuring thunk and storage tucked into every corner so gear actually has a home.

This 41 Open shines in waters where you might run from shallow bays to deep blue in a single day. The moderate draft lets you ease into skinny anchorages, while the hull’s offshore pedigree handles afternoon chop and squalls with composure. Long, open runs between islands are where the boat really settles in, with a comfortable cruise that keeps crew relaxed and dry. The expansive cockpit is ideal for mixing trolling spreads with sandbar days, and the protected helm and airy layout mean you’re not cooked by the sun on those long passages. It’s a versatile platform for serious adventure and relaxed cruising alike.
