Fast forward to the mid-2020s and family-run Regal is still manufacturing the 28 Express thanks to its unabated popularity. It manages to be good looking and elegant, as well as highly practical and decidedly robust all at the same time. It’s perhaps this balance that is the key to its success. The very competitive price certainly helps too.
Designed for a comfortable weekend getaway, the 28 Express is packed with features and amenities you’d expect on a much larger model including a head with 6-foot standing room, queen-sized berth, and well-equipped galley. On deck, the rear lounge has four different seating configurations ranging from dining area to expansive sun loungers.
Over 20 years of tweaks and adaptations of this hugely popular model Regal has created a tough, speedy, and practical sport cruiser that is bursting with accessories and high-end appliances. And it most certainly turns heads.
Regal 28 Express Key Features
The Regal 28 Express packs the features into its classically styled sport cruiser body. It begins with a roomy swim platform and sun pad, and continues on deck to the lounge seating area which can be changed into four different configurations, as well as a deck refreshment area. The cockpit has seating for two and a simple yet elegant dashboard complete with dual 9” Garmin displays.
The interior is spacious, with the largest head in its class, and a galley that features an electric burner, refrigerator, microwave, and sink. There is a full queen-sized bed in the mid-cabin, and a lounge dinette which converts to sleeping for two more people.
Regal’s current 28 Express is highly customizable, and that includes a choice of six engines (Volvo and MerCruiser) including the Volvo V8 380 EVC2 DP CAT. Choose everything from the color of the hull and bootstripe to the countertop finish, deck accessories, flooring choices, entertainment and navigation extras, or choose a fiberglass tower and air conditioning.
Regal 28 Express Performance
The handling of the Regal 28 Express is pleasantly responsive, and it offers a comfortable feel even in bigger seas. With a 15-degree bow rise, visibility from the cockpit is good even on acceleration, and it planes comfortably. Depending on the engine installed, testers have found max speeds up to 35 knots at 5000rpm and 1.5+ mpg, but a more realistic cruising speed to expect is in the mid-20s.
The Regal 28 Express has a versatile layout and seating
