Introducing Pongos, a 2017 Tiara F44 Flybridge finished in a striking grey hull, currently berthed at Marina Carma in Yucalpetén and ready for her next owner. Built on Tiara's proven GRP V-hull platform, this 44-foot flybridge cruiser pairs classic Tiara craftsmanship with the added versatility of an enclosed upper helm — giving owners the best of both a sociable open-air flybridge and a comfortable, air-conditioned salon below. Power comes from twin Cummins QSB6.7 diesel inboards, rated at 550 horsepower each, running through direct-drive transmissions to bronze 4-blade propellers. With 2,179 hours on the starboard engine and 2,170 hours on the port — the starboard side having already been through a factory overhaul — these are well-proven power plants with plenty of service life ahead. A bow thruster is fitted for confident close-quarters handling at the dock. Onboard comfort is backed by an Onan Cummins 11.5kW diesel generator (5,073 hours) supplying full 110/220V power throughout the boat. Fuel is carried in a single 1,350-liter (approx. 357-gallon) tank, with a 600-liter (approx. 158-gallon) fresh water tank supplemented by an onboard watermaker producing 1.5 gallons per hour — ideal for extended time away from the dock. Pongos offers a two-stateroom, two-head layout sleeping up to four guests comfortably, with four separate air conditioning zones covering the salon, master and guest staterooms, plus dedicated cooling on the flybridge. The galley is equipped with an Isotherm two-drawer fridge/freezer in the salon and a second Isotherm single-drawer fridge up on the flybridge, so the party never has to leave the upper deck for a cold drink. At the helm, she's outfitted with a comprehensive Garmin electronics suite: twin Garmin GPSMAP 7612 multifunction displays, Garmin GPS/chartplotter, Garmin radar, Garmin autopilot, Garmin depth sounder and fish finder, an SMX SeaView marine diesel engine monitoring display, VHF radio, and a compass — everything needed for confident coastal cruising or longer offshore runs. Additional equipment includes a Fusion stereo system with JL Audio speakers throughout, automatic bilge pumps, and a 15hp two-stroke Sianovo-powered dinghy, ready to launch for beach days and reef exploring. Pongos is a well-equipped, mechanically sound Tiara F44 offering the space, power, and electronics package to make coastal cruising in the Yucatán and beyond an easy, comfortable experience.
