Regal Boats is a name boaters love — and for good reason. For more than 50 years, this family-owned manufacturer has been building luxury performance boats designed to fit a wide range of boating lifestyles, whether you’re into day cruising, watersports, overnighting, or long weekends on the water.  

From sleek bowriders perfect for family fun to spacious yachts made for comfort and cruising, Regal’s lineup has something for nearly every boater. This guide will help you understand what Regal Boats are, what kinds of boats they make, and why someone might choose one to be their next boat. 

A Legacy Built on Quality & Passion 

Regal Boats was founded in 1969 by Paul and Carol Kuck in Florida, with a vision of building exceptional boats with real craftsmanship and attention to detail. Today, the company is still family-owned and operated, spanning three generations and continuing to build boats that emphasize both performance and comfort.  

Their purpose is to “honor God and enrich lives,” a philosophy that shows up in the brand’s focus on customer experience and satisfaction. Regal has repeatedly been recognized for high customer satisfaction across multiple boat categories by organizations like the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA). 

What Types of Boats Does Regal Make? 

Regal’s lineup is broad, offering models that suit different boating priorities and lifestyles. Here’s a breakdown of the major boat types you’ll find: 

  1. Sterndrive & Outboard Bowriders

Bowriders are perhaps the quintessential all-around boat — versatile, comfortable, and easy to use. Regal offers both sterndrive (engine mounted inside hull with drive out the back) and outboard-powered versions.  

  • Perfect for family outings, casual cruising, and water sports 
  • Spacious seating, easy swim access, and comfortable layouts 
  • A great match for beginners to seasoned boaters alike 

The bowrider models range from compact sizes to larger options that feel more like small day yachts — perfect for people who want flexible use without sacrificing comfort. 

 

  1. Surf & Watersports Boats

If you love wakesurfing, wakeboarding, or just making big fun waves, Regal’s Surf series delivers. These are modified versions of their bowrider hulls with advanced surf systems that create customizable wakes and smooth performance for watersports lovers.  

  • Built with integrated wave-shaping technology 
  • Designed for surf performance and family fun alike 
  • Adjustable settings let you tailor waves to skill level and board type 

 

  1. Sports Activity Vessel (SAV)

The SAV series is Regal’s take on the do-it-all boat. Think of it as a day yacht — stylish and powerful like a cruiser, but flexible enough for fishing, watersports, entertaining, and even overnighting.  

  • Combines multiple boating activities in one platform 
  • Big interior spaces, cabins, and creature comforts 
  • Ideal for boaters who don’t want just one type of ride  

  1. Express Cruisers & Yachts

For boaters who want overnight comfort and extended stays on the water, Regal’s cruiser and yacht lines step into luxury territory. These boats are bigger, offer sleeping cabins, bathrooms, and thoughtful interior layouts — perfect for weekends on the water or coastal cruising.  

  • Large cabins and living spaces 
  • High-end amenities and stylish design 
  • Great choice for families, couples, or social boating 

Why Choose a Regal Boat? 

Here are a handful of reasons Regal stands out to boaters: 

Award-Winning Satisfaction 

Regal has earned numerous high marks in customer satisfaction from industry groups like the NMMA — a strong sign that owners enjoy both their boats and their ownership experience.  

Quality Craftsmanship 

Each Regal boat is handcrafted, with thoughtful design touches, premium materials, and a focus on comfort and performance.  

Range of Uses 

Whether you’re a casual weekend cruiser, a watersports enthusiast, or someone who values overnight comfort, there’s likely a Regal model built for you. Their versatile line means you don’t have to compromise on what you want out of your time on the water.  

Innovative Performance 

Regal has a history of integrating performance innovations — such as specialized hull designs like FasTrac (a performance-enhancing hull design) — that help improve speed, handling, and fuel efficiency. 

Who Are Regal Boats For? 

The Family Boater: You want space, comfort, and versatility — bowriders or SAV models are fantastic for beaches, lakes, or calm bay days.  

The Watersports Fan: If surfing, wakeboarding, or tubing is your thing, Regal’s Surf series offers wave performance many boaters crave.  

The Weekend Cruiser: Love spending nights on the water? Express cruisers and yachts offer cabins and creature comforts for multi-day adventures.  

The All-Around Boater: Want one boat that does it all? The SAV line bridges practical activities like fishing with cruising and entertaining. 

Is a Regal Right for You? 

Regal Boats aren’t just about getting out on the water — they’re about how you get out there. With a rich legacy, diverse lineup, and commitment to quality and customer experience, Regal offers options for nearly every boating lifestyle. Whether you’re chasing waves, planning family outings, or dreaming of sunset cruises, a Regal might just be the perfect match.
