Overview
The Regal 38 Express presents a thoughtfully designed and functional layout, combining performance with comfort. This vessel features twin 260 horsepower Volvo Penta D4 stern drives, advanced electronic controls, and a spacious interior that caters to both leisure and practical boating needs. The design emphasizes ease of handling, comfortable accommodations, and efficient use of space both above and below deck.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The swim platform extends nearly ten feet in length and is positioned to keep swimmers safely clear of the out drives. A side-mounted three-step reboarding ladder enhances safety and convenience. The cockpit offers roomy seating that can be converted into a sun lounge by reversing the seat back. Molded steps facilitate boarding and disembarking, though the addition of a grab handle at the rear overhead would improve safety. To starboard, an entertainment center accommodates an optional electric grill, and a centrally located hatch provides easy access for daily engine checks, supplemented by ample engine room lighting. The helm deck is elevated by ten inches above the aft deck and features comfortable wraparound seating opposite the helm, giving guests an excellent view. The windshield walkthrough steps are narrow but functional, with latches that could benefit from being interconnected for easier operation. Bow rails vary in height from 18 inches at the side decks to 27 inches near the ground tackle, balancing safety with accessibility.
Helm and Controls
The helm station is equipped with a well-organized gauge cluster, featuring a centrally placed tachometer with a digital display linked to the Electronic Vessel Control (EVC) system. This allows the operator to scroll through various performance data. Dual outdrive trim gauges and an automatic trim assist system adjust the outdrives throughout the power curve, with manual override available. Electrical switches are thoughtfully grouped on the starboard side, with the horn positioned forward for easy access. The stern drive joystick is ergonomically placed at the front end of the armrest, enabling precise and nearly single-handed docking control. The spotlight remote control is located below the wheel to the right, though relocating it to the left side would facilitate assistance from an observer during night navigation.
Power and Performance
Powered by twin 260 horsepower Volvo Penta D4 stern drives, the Regal 38 Express demonstrates solid and steady handling characteristics. Acceleration produces a bow rise of less than 10 degrees, maintaining excellent visibility during takeoff. Once on plane, the boat settles into a comfortable five-degree bow-high attitude. With a test weight exceeding 14,000 pounds, the vessel remains stable even during aggressive maneuvers and when cutting through wakes. The top speed reached 34.8 knots at 3500 rpm, with a fuel consumption of 28 gallons per hour, yielding a range of approximately 309 nautical miles. The most efficient cruise speed was 25.1 knots at 2750 rpm, burning 16 gallons per hour and extending the range to 389 nautical miles. The boat planes quickly, reaching planing speed in 5.7 seconds, 20 miles per hour in 10 seconds, and 30 miles per hour in 15.1 seconds.
Interior Living Spaces
Below deck, the salon is open, inviting, and spacious. To port, the galley is well-equipped with holders for dinnerware, a generously sized refrigerator with adjustable shelves capable of accommodating full gallon containers, and a recessed double-burner stove featuring a micro switch that disables the stove when the cover is closed. Forward of the galley is a day head that offers ample space and ventilation, avoiding the claustrophobic conditions often found in boats of this size. The commode shares the space with an enclosed shower, separated by a pocket privacy door.
Private Accommodations
The private master stateroom is located forward, featuring a berth measuring four feet nine inches in width with overhead clearance of two feet five and a half inches. Opening port lights on either side and an overhead hatch with options for a screen or blackout shade provide ventilation and natural light. The dinette is upholstered in ultra-leather and includes a removable center seat back that conceals storage for the table pedestal and table. A pop-out footrest adds to comfort, while two fully enclosed and bilge-isolated storage compartments are integrated into the deck. A privacy curtain separates the aft cabin from the salon, creating a cozy sitting area with dedicated climate vents and overhead clearance of three feet three inches. This area converts into an additional berth by deploying filler cushions stored beneath the seat.
Engine Compartment and Maintenance Access
The engine compartment is spacious despite housing twin diesel engines and a generator, with clear visibility of fuel tanks on either side. Daily engine checks are facilitated by a dedicated access hatch in the center of the deck, which is easier to use than the larger full hatch. Even with the engine hatch open, access between the cockpit and the engine compartment remains unobstructed, enhancing convenience for routine maintenance.
Conclusion
The Regal 38 Express combines solid performance, thoughtful design, and comfortable accommodations in a well-rounded package. Its steady handling, efficient powertrain, and ergonomic helm controls make it accessible for operators of varying experience levels. The spacious interior and versatile deck layout provide comfort for both day cruising and extended outings. Overall, the vessel demonstrates Regal's attention to detail and commitment to functional luxury.
