Hull Construction

The 2900 Open is constructed with a water barrier outer gelcoat layer and handlaid fiberglass with a special formulated resin. The stringers are marine grade plywood and encapsulated in handlaid fiberglass and integrated into the hull. This process creates a solid backbone which makes the 2900 Open ride like a much larger boat than it is. Seacocks and all underwater thru-hull fittings are made of bronze, and a hullside exhaust system is used. The 2900 has four custom oval opening port lights with screens for great ventilation and natural light while below deck. Like Tiaras of larger stature, the 2900 features a hullside ventilation system, and gelcoated boot line graphics.

Deck Construction

The 2900 Open deck construction is similar to the hull - using a water barrier outer gelcoat and handlaid fiberglass. Tiara's custom diamond pattern non-skid is used on all deck and cockpit surfaces for sure, safe footing. The custom windshield is made of welded aluminum and Solex 1/4" safety glass, and handrails, and a center hinged ventilating section make this windshield one of the safest, strongest, and best-built windshields in the industry. Access to the foredeck is easy with grab rails and a sturdy one-piece welded bow rail. Other deck features include an aluminum deck hatch with screen and privacy cover, flush forward anchor locker with overboard drain, and a fiberglass molded-in bow pulpit with optional S.S. roller assembly.
