Tiara Yachts Introduces the 39 LE: A Compact Luxury Express Cruiser
Tiara Yachts, the family-owned builder based in Holland, Michigan, has expanded its Luxury Express (LE) line with a new compact model: the 39 LE. Scheduled for its public debut at the Miami International Boat Show in February 2026, the 39 LE brings Tiara’s hallmark blend of luxury, thoughtful design and advanced systems to owners who want a capable boat for long days and comfortable overnights.
The 39 LE is the smallest of three models in the LE series, yet it retains the key characteristics that define the line: clean, elegant exterior lines, high-tech integrated systems and performance suitable for serious cruising. With an overall length of 39 feet, 6 inches and a beam of 12 feet, 6 inches, the 39 LE is sized to balance on-deck space, interior comfort and nimble handling for a wide range of boating activities.
Under power, the 39 LE is driven by twin Mercury 600-hp V12 Verado outboard engines and features joystick piloting for precise low-speed maneuvering and easy docking. Electronics at the helm are supplied by Garmin Marine, including a 9219 touch-screen chartplotter that integrates with EmpirBus digital switching for simplified control of systems aboard. This level of integration streamlines operation and provides a modern, intuitive interface for navigation and vessel management.
Onboard, the 39 LE is organized around multiple social zones that make it comfortable for both entertaining and active water pursuits. The bridge deck is a standout social area: helm and companion seats are designed to rotate, creating an L-shaped lounge that encourages conversation and relaxed cruising. The cockpit layout is configurable to match owner priorities. One available option is the buffet lounge module, a rotating lounge that locks into multiple positions and includes built-in features for food preparation and service—ideal for entertaining guests or enjoying extended days on the water. For owners focused on fishing and water sports, the adventure module replaces the buffet with a multifunctional station that includes a sink, cutting board, freezer tank, live well, rod holders, a fold-down seat and a fresh-water washdown—everything needed for active days on the water.
One of the 39 LE’s distinguishing interior features is its galley placement. Unlike other models in Tiara’s lineup, the 39 LE locates the galley inside the cabin. That choice opens up more usable entertainment space on deck while still providing a well-appointed interior food-preparation area. The cabin layout supports comfortable overnighting, with sleeping arrangements for four and a three-zone head—features aimed at making extended cruises more convenient and enjoyable for families or small groups.
Tom Slikkers, CEO of Tiara Yachts, emphasized the model’s role in the company’s lineup: “We are advancing both our brand and the Luxury Express series with the introduction of the 39 LE,” he said. “Rooted in innovation and versatility, this cabin cruiser is a timeless model at the intersection of legacy and luxury. We are excited to introduce a new LE model to our customers, and we’re confident that the 39 LE will be as enduring as it is innovative.”
In short, the 39 LE is aimed at owners who want the performance and technology of a modern express cruiser combined with flexible spaces for entertaining, family cruising and sport use. With its compact footprint, modular cockpit options and an unusual in-cabin galley that frees up deck space, the 39 LE offers a distinctive package for buyers looking for a versatile, well-equipped boat in the Luxury Express range.
The 39 LE’s introduction at the Miami International Boat Show in February 2026 will be the first opportunity for prospective buyers and media to see the model in person and evaluate how its layout, systems and options meet real-world boating needs. As Tiara continues to evolve the LE series, the 39 LE underscores the brand’s emphasis on integrated technology, thoughtful ergonomics and practical versatility in a luxury express platform.
