WELCOME TO REGAL
I know I speak for everyone at Regal when I welcome you to the
ever-growing family of Regal boat owners. You’ve chosen a vessel
that is recognized worldwide for its standard of excellence. Each
step in construction has been carefully scrutinized to assure comfort,
performance, reliability and safety for both your passengers and
yourself.
Your boat is certi ed by the National Marine Manufacturers
Association. It also complies with the applicable standards set by
the United States Coast Guard, American Boat and Yacht Council
plus the International Marine Certi cation Institute. Your Regal
boat was built with the same attention to detail and quality of
construction that we would expect in a boat we would purchase
ourselves.
Whether you’re a veteran boater or a newcomer, we strongly urge you
to read this boat owner’s manual thoroughly. Familiarize yourself
with the various components of your boat, and heed the safety
precautions noted herein.
If you have questions that are not covered in this manual, please
consult your authorized Regal dealer for assistance or phone the Regal
factory at 407-851-4360.
Thank you and welcome to the “World of Regal!”

Introduction
Boating is becoming more popular ever year. There are numerous
types of recreational vessels on our waterways today involved in an
ever growing number of activities. Therefore, as a new boat owner
it is of the highest priority to learn about general boating practices
before operating your craft.
Your Regal dealer will answer many questions and provide valuable
“hands on” information during the completion of the new boat
delivery process. In addition, your dealer has received special factory
training on the product line and his services should be employed
to solve technical problems and periodic maintenance beyond the
scope of this manual. Also, your Regal dealer carries a line of fac-
tory approved parts and accessories.
Your Regal dealer can provide information regarding national train-
ing organizations such as the U.S. Power Squadron and United States
Coast Guard Auxiliary. Along with other organizations and litera-
ture, they can help build your “boating savvy” by developing the
necessary skills and awareness to be a safe and compotent skipper.
Your local library can also help in providing recommended boating
literature such as Chapman Piloting (Seamanship & Boat Handling
by Elbert S. Maloney). Remember, the waterways can change from
normal to abnormal conditions in a heartbeat. Knowing how to
react quickly comes from experience and knowledge which can be
gained through boating education.
Welcome aboard!
YOUR REGAL OWNER’S MANUAL
Your Regal owner’s manual has been developed to assist you in
operating your vessel with safety and pleasure. BE SURE TO
READ AND BECOME FAMILIAR WITH THE CONTENTS
BEFORE OPERATING YOUR CRAFT. Your owner’s manual
has been divided into general chapters to assist you in becoming more
knowledgeable with your Regal boat. Also, we have added a special
technical drawing chapter for maintenance and troubleshooting.
THIS MANUAL IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A COMPLETE
SOURCE OF TECHNICAL MAINTENANCE, BOAT
HANDLING TECHNIQUES, BOATING SAFETY, OR
SEAMANSHIP. THESE SKILLS REQUIRE EDUCATION
AND EXPERIENCE LEVELS BEYOND THIS MANUAL.
ALSO, REMEMBER YOUR REGAL DEALER HAS BEEN
TRAINED ON THE VARIOUS BOAT SYSTEMS ALONG
WITH THE PROPER TOOLS TO MAKE REPAIRS.
In keeping with its commitment to continued improvement, Regal
notes that all drawings, speci cations, models, standard, and optional
equipment referred to in this manual are subject to change without
notice. Information is only accurate to the revision date.
OWNER’S INFORMATION PACKET
Regal has provided an information pouch aboard the vessel. Read
and become familiar with the materials. This packet contains
valuable literature on your propulsion package, standard, and optional
equipment systems and various care and cleaning instructions. Be
sure to store the information pouch in a clean dry area for quick
reference.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Hull Identi cation Number (HIN)________________
The United States Coast Guard has established a universal system of
numerically identifying vessels by using a hull identi cation number
or “HIN.” This number identi es your boat’s manufacturer, boat
model, hull number, month, and year of manufacture. The HIN is
found on a metal plate af xed to your boat’s starboard side just below
the rub rail on the transom near the vertical edge of the chine. The
HIN consists of 12 alpha and numeric characters. It is recommended
that you locate and write down the HIN for future reference. It can
be especially useful when buying boat insurance and ordering parts.
A second HIN number is found in a hidden location. This second
HIN is useful to authorities if for example the boat is stolen and the
original transom HIN is modi ed or eliminated.
Vessel Information Sheet________________________
It is recommended that you ll out the information on the following
page. It will supply vital statistics on your vessel. Make a copy of the
data for safe keeping at home.
Vessel Float Plan_______________________________
Fill out a oat plan similar to the one on the following pages and
leave it with a responsible person who will notify the United States
Coast Guard or local law enforcement authorities upon your extended
absence. If you change your plans, be sure to notify this person.
Make copies of the oat plan included in this owner’s manual for each
time you go boating. This will help people know where to nd you
should you not return on schedule. Do not le the oat plan with the
United States Coast Guard.

Introduction
Capacity Plate_________________________________
Close to the helm on Regal boats up to 26’ in length is a capacity plate.
This plate represents manufacturers who participate in the National
Marine Manufacturer’s Association small boat certi cation program.
A similar yacht certi cation plate for boats over 26’ covers many of
the same guidelines and others from ABYC into the yacht program.
Your boat has been certi ed by NMMA approved inspectors to be
in compliance with their system guidelines along with federal safety
regulations. The driver of the craft must read the plate information
before operating the vessel. The plate is located at the helm, and an
image can also be found on the safety aboard chapter.
The capacity plate data applies under normal conditions. BE SURE
TO READ AND ABIDE BY THE CAPACITY LIMITS.
REMEMBER, THE BOAT OPERATOR IS RESPONSIBLE
FOR THE VESSEL AND PASSENGERS.
Note the following typical capacity plate information below:
The plate states the maximum number of persons allowed
on the boat, or an equivalent weight regardless of the
number of passengers
The total weight of persons, gear, and other items under
normal conditions that the boat is capable of carrying.
Overloading, improper loading, and weight distribution are
well documented causes of accidents. Provide for an extra
margin of safety in rough sea conditions.
