Extended cruising in comfort.
by Craig Ritchie
Building on the runaway success of its innovative C 50 Coupe introduced in 2015, Tiara Yacht’s all-new C 49 Coupe builds on the original design with more usable space throughout.
The integrated 63-inch swim platform and wide portside steps lead the way to the spacious aft cockpit where a sumptuous L-shaped lounge finished in exterior-grade Ultraleather and a comfy aft-facing seat make the ideal spot to relax over cold drinks. The L-shaped lounge is a break from previous Coupe models, thanks to a single transom entry that nearly doubles the seating area. A high-gloss, adjustable teak table handles casual snacks or meals under the stars with equal ease.
A sliding cockpit door leads inside to the full-beam galley, well positioned to serve both outdoor and indoor dining spaces while also serving up spectacular 360-degree views. Equipped with a drawer-style refrigerator/freezer, two-burner cooktop, microwave/convection oven and quartz countertops, the galley is a bright and open space for owners to unleash their inner gourmet. Continue forward into the salon and a massive U-shaped dinette lounge to port faces a loveseat to starboard, located just aft of the double-wide helm seat. With a push of a button, the entire salon opens up to the elements thanks to the large electrically actuated sunroof.
Powered by twin Volvo Penta IPS 800s with joystick docking, the C 49’s helm is designed for intuitive operation. A pair of Garmin 7600-series displays put all information at the driver’s fingertips, while visibility from the helm seat is outstanding.
A central stairway leads below to an attractive atrium with a comfortable portside lounge that can lift up and transform into a bunk; the kids will love this feature. A day head is located to starboard, and the mid-cabin, full-beam owner’s suite is very bright and spacious thanks to enormous privacy windows on both sides. There’s a centerline queen bed with innerspring mattress, a private ensuite head, and generous wardrobe and storage facilities. Guests enjoy the comfort of a spacious bow stateroom complete with ensuite access to the day head, large hullside windows and a similar island queen bed.
In true Tiara style, the C 49 comes with an inviting option list, allowing owners to spec this yacht exactly as they wish. Luxuries like a hydraulic swim platform, full teak decking, a Seakeeper 9 gyro and KVH satellite TV system are only the beginning.
