You want the run offshore and the afternoon at anchor from the same boat. The 39 LS gives you 330 statute miles at a 42.4 mph cruise and a terrace that folds out over the water when you get there.

Quick Verdict
- Portside terrace folds out to put a platform at water level off the cockpit rather than only off the stern, with a starboard boarding door for getting people on and off
- On Tiara's own test sheet the 5,000 rpm optimum cruise is both the faster and the longer-legged setting: 42.4 mph for 330 statute miles off 90 percent of the 500-gallon tank, against 35.5 mph for 312
- Twin Mercury 600 V12 Verados with joystick piloting reach 54.0 mph at 6,146 rpm, over a forward queen berth, private head and a mid cabin that converts to a berth
Our Take
The 39 LS is the boat in Tiara's Luxury Sport line where the portside terrace arrives, and that one feature reorganizes the whole day. A platform at water level off the cockpit, rather than only off the stern, is the difference between people swimming near the boat and people using the boat while they swim.
What makes it more than a party trick is the run that gets you there. Tiara tested this hull on Lake Michigan off Holland at 26,632 lbs as tested, two aboard, in under a foot of sea: 54.0 mph at 6,146 rpm and idle to 30 in 11.5 seconds. The cruise band is where the argument is. 35.5 mph at 4,500 rpm gives 312 statute miles; 42.4 mph at 5,000 rpm gives 330. The 5,000 rpm setting is the one to plan around, because it is both the faster figure and the longer-legged one, at 286 nautical miles off 90 percent of the 500-gallon tank.
Below deck you get a forward queen, a private head and a mid cabin that converts to a berth - enough to host overnight or to give someone a quiet place to lie down mid-passage, without the boat pretending to be a cruiser. Decide the aft module at order: rotating lounge if the cockpit has to seat people, adventure module if it has to fish. And drive the 39 LE on the same day. Same length, same beam, same deadrise, opposite answer.

Tiara Yachts 39 LS Overview
The 39 LS is Tiara's luxury sport walkaround: 39'6" overall with the integrated platform, on a 12'6" beam and a 3'5" draft, at 21,339 lbs dry with 21 degrees of deadrise at the transom.
Walkaround decks connect social zones from bow to stern. Forward, wrap-around seating converts to a large sunpad. Aft, the cockpit takes either rotating lounge seating with storage or a module built around fishing.
A portside terrace folds out to widen the cockpit at anchor, and a starboard boarding door handles people getting on and off.
Performance & Handling
Twin Mercury 600 Verado V12 outboards drive the 39 LS, with joystick piloting and integrated Garmin navigation.
On Tiara's own test - Lake Michigan off Holland, 26,632 lbs as tested, two aboard, under one foot of sea - the boat ran 54.0 mph at 6,146 rpm and reached 30 mph from idle in 11.5 seconds.
Tiara publishes two optimum cruise settings: 35.5 mph at 4,500 rpm for 312 statute miles, and 42.4 mph at 5,000 rpm for 330 statute miles. Both are calculated on 90% of the 500-gallon tank. The 5,000 rpm setting is the one to plan around - it is both the faster figure and the longer-legged one, at 286 nautical miles.
Interior & Accommodations
Below deck the 39 LS carries a forward queen berth, a private head, and a mid cabin storage area that converts to a berth - enough to host guests overnight or to give someone a quiet place to lie down mid-passage.
On deck, the wrap-around bow seating converts to a sunpad, and the aft cockpit changes purpose entirely depending on the module specified: rotating lounge seating with storage, or a fishing setup.
The portside terrace is the piece that changes how the boat is used at anchor - it puts a platform at water level off the cockpit instead of only off the stern.
Market Position
The 39 LS sits in the middle of Tiara's Luxury Sport line, between the 35 LS and the 43 LS, and it is where the line picks up the portside terrace.
It shares its 39'6" length, 12'6" beam and 21 degree deadrise with the 39 LE, and the two split on where the volume goes. The LS keeps it on deck - walkaround access, the terrace, a convertible bow - with a queen berth and a convertible mid cabin below, at 21,339 lbs dry. The LE puts it below, in two sleeping quarters and a galley.
Against a large luxury center console of similar length, the 39 LS trades some open cockpit for the terrace and the berths.
Who the 39 LS Is For
Buy the 39 LS if your days start with a long run and end tied up somewhere with people in the water - the 42.4 mph cruise gets you out, and the terrace and convertible bow are what you use once you are there.
Specify the adventure module if the cockpit has to fish, and the rotating lounge if it has to seat people. Step across to the 39 LE if two sleeping quarters and a below-deck galley matter more than the terrace, and step up to the 43 LS for the same layout with more of it.
