Overview

About this vessel

This 50 is the exact same thing as her sistership, the 50 Coupe, from her headliner down, the difference being her namesake flying bridge. Like the 50 Coupe, the 50 Flybridge has those instantly recognizable Tiara lines, with a modern twist. She's just a tad sleeker, a touch lower profile than you might be expecting. It's a look accentuated by a floating hardtop. Tiara came up with this design to entice a younger crowd.

At the helm, she's smoother than smooth. The 50 is fully operable using the Volvo Penta joystick—both at slow and fast speeds—though the wheel felt so good in my hands that it's hard to resist using it. She's also got Volvo Penta's Glass Cockpit system, which fully integrates her engine components and Garmin electronics. At nearly WOT, the 50 turned hardover to port in 2½ boat lengths, and to starboard in three, and her heel was an afterthought. Sightlines, even while plowing through a complete corkscrew at the lower helm, were never a problem. S-turns were a joy, as was her acceleration. Her top end speed averaged 31.8 knots.

The engine room on the test boat was clean, orderly, and well laid out. Accessible through a hatch in the saloon, the space featured a very capable 13.5-kilowatt Cummins Onan generator forward and two Racor fuel-water separators sandwiched between two 325-gallon fuel tanks. Headroom is a touch low at around 4 feet, but not to the point where it becomes a major issue.

One of the highlights on the 50 is an accommodations level that feels like it belongs on a 55, or even a 58-footer. The pièce de résistance down there is the full-beam, amidships master. Large windows to either side let literal boatloads of natural light billow in while also aiding in the boat's sleek profile. Opening portholes allow for cross breezes to gently caress the owners as they lie on the athwartships island queen. Teak laminate with wenge accents is an elegant and standard touch that lends the boat a distinctly nautical feel. The en suite master head features a roomy shower.

The forward VIP on the test boat featured a queen-size berth that scissored from a single queen-size to twin berths—an interesting turn of design that shows how much forethought Tiara put into keeping this boat open and airy throughout. With the cabin doors open, you can sit on the berth and actually see all the way to the cockpit.

The 50's namesake flying bridge offers tons of air and much more. The Tiara's flying bridge is nearly covered in seating, including wraparound seating forward and a convertible couch/sunpad aft—the latter of which can be configured to face backward. The deck also has a very practical centrally located console that has a sink with an ice maker and fridge below.

The other main outdoor entertainment area is the cockpit, which features an electrically actuated dining settee and comfortable aft bench seat. A large in-sole stowage compartment here makes a good spot for fenders and line. Staircases to either side of the transom lead down to the swim platform, which Tiara had the foresight to turn into an entertainment area of its own. A good-sized barbecue means that you can grill close to the water. There's also the ability to clean and cook fresh fish without having to bring them into the living area of the boat.

The Tiara 50 Flybridge is built functionally, with the main function being fun. She's built sensibly without sacrificing aesthetics, and with advanced technology that actually makes her simpler to use.
