Regal New Web Site

Regal presents its new web site.  Regal was founded by Paul and Carol Kuck in 1969 with investors Gene Kandel and Clark Prudhon.  The company starts with a fourteen foot ski-boat, which is followed by a 17 tri-hull, and a 21 cuddy cabin.  The first two years see immediate expansion with Regal expanding to a bigger facility in Orlando in 1971, unfortunately though the 1973 oil embargo nearly stops the boating market with the company going near bankruptcy in that year.  Things though start to turn around after the mid seventies as in 1976 Regal expands beyond the USA shipping its first boats to Austria in Europe.  In 1996 Regal presents the FasTrac Hull design which also makes it win the Innovation Award by International Marine Trade Exhibit and Conference.  This will be the first of seven more awards for Regal with the latest coming in 2022 for Customer Satisfaction Award.  In 2003 Regal becomes and decides to operate as a debt free company, something which still continues till today.   Regal co-founder Paul Kuck passes away on five September 2006, as the leader ship of the company passes to his eldest son Duane.  In 2008 Regal expands its premises, with another expansion coming in 2023 for its Florida site.  Currently Regal offers forty models in six lines; Sterndrive Bowrider, Outboard Bowrider, Surf, SAV, Express Cruiser, and Yacht which start from the 2000 ES and go up to the 50 SAV.  Regal's new web site takes you around with the following buttons; Our Boats, Build Your Boat, View Inventory, Events, Why Regal, and Careers.

New Model: Regal 42 Grande Coupe

Regal's all-new 42 series is proving an interesting offer in the twelve meter size.  The 42 Grande Coupe version follows the layout of the 42 Fly with the hard top opening replacing the flybridge and its extra entertainment area up top.  Just as the Fly the 42 Grande Coupe offers a lower deck dedicated to two spacious cabins, and an option for a second guest head or a small kitchenette below.  Living in the 42 Grande Coupe is all located on the main deck, with the cabin area offering a C-shaped dinette, galley and entertainment unit to starboard, and the helm station.  All this becomes a special single level entertainment area with the aft deck when patio doors are fully open.

New Model: Regal 42 Fly

Regal introduce the all-new 42 Fly. Boasting a spacious flybridge, open air atrium, and a European influenced layout the 42 Fly sees Regal return to a flybridge cruiser.  Regal's last flybridge model was the 4080 Flybridge Sedan produced from 2007 till 2011.  The 42 Fly has cool modern conservative exterior looks, with a soft curved shear line taking you from the water to the bow, and not overly large hull windows serving the lower deck cabins.  The interior of the 42 Fly offers a mix of European American design style with an owners full beam midships cabin, and a choice of a single shower head and a small kitchenette, or two shower heads options. The interesting detail here is that both cabins are fully open no door splitting them.  Still by photos and plans making bulkheads and a door splitting the midships cabin does not seem a hard thing to make, and will be important if Regal wants to sell the 42 Fly in Europe.  The Regal 42 Fly is powered by standard Volvo 370hp or optional 435hp with IPS pod propulsion.
