Regal 26 XO Boats For Sale

The Regal 26 XO is a trailerable pocket cruiser built on the same platform as the 26 Express, with Regal offering the buyer a choice of stern drive or, in this XO configuration, outboard power. It measures 26 to 27 feet overall depending on how the bow pulpit and platform are counted, carries an 8-foot-6-inch beam that keeps it under most oversized-trailering rules, and rides on a sharp-V entry that settles into an 18-degree deadrise. Empty weight is about 6,100 pounds, rising to roughly 9,000 pounds on the trailer, with a maximum trailering height near 12 feet 6 inches. It suits buyers who want a weekend cruiser they can haul between cruising grounds — the Florida Keys, Tampa, Savannah — without giving up a real cabin.

Power comes from a single Yamaha 4.2-liter V6 four-stroke, most often the F300, with some hulls rigged with the 350-horsepower version. Behind a 15.5-pitch Saltwater Series II prop, the 300 turns 5,700 rpm for a top speed near 40 miles per hour. Best cruise sits at 4,000 rpm and 23.4 miles per hour, where fuel consumption of 12 gallons per hour works out to 2 miles per gallon and a range of 127 statute miles on the roughly 70-gallon tank while holding a 10% reserve. The 350-powered boats cruise in the mid-to-upper 30s and reach close to 50 miles per hour wide open. The 26 XO planes in about 4.2 seconds, passes 20 miles per hour in 7.4 seconds and 30 in 11.4, leans gently into turns, and crossed wakes without pounding or throwing spray.

The helm carries a seat-and-a-half with a flip-up bolster, an adjustable telescopic steering wheel with a suicide knob, and dual Garmin 742 multifunction displays — generous electronics for a 26-foot boat. A joystick controls the bow thruster, which is effective for sideways maneuvering but runs on or off rather than progressively, and physical toggle switches handle the systems alongside a VHF radio within reach. Standing equipment includes an anchor windlass with a stainless plow anchor and roller, trim tabs, and Regal's electronically controlled power tower that drops the arch and folds the bimini for bridges, rack storage or a garage.

The cockpit is built around flexible seating: forward- and rear-facing lounges whose seat backs flip down to form sun pads, a deck cover plate for a pedestal table, and removable button-down covers over the sole. Storage is plentiful, with a built-in Igloo cooler under the starboard seat, compartments beneath nearly every seat, and an aft locker that the XO layout opens up because there is no inboard engine — that space, held by a stainless gas strut, houses the generator, water heater and Fire-Boy suppression system. A portside walkthrough with a stainless-framed acrylic gate leads to a full walk-around swim platform measuring 40 inches per side, a boarding ladder, and a hot-and-cold transom shower with shore power and city water hookups.

Three steps through the center of the windshield reach a bow sun pad, while the companionway slides open to a cabin with full standing headroom — comfortable for a six-foot-two adult. Large hullside windows and an overhead hatch bring in light over wraparound seating and Regal's swiveling teak table, which drops to convert into a forward berth. The galley has a single electric burner, stainless sink, microwave/convection oven and a refrigerator with ice box, plus an electrical panel and air conditioning with reverse-cycle heat. A mid-berth under the helm adds a double with a memory-foam mattress measuring 4 feet 6 inches by 6 feet 4 inches and 30 inches of overhead clearance, a 22-inch TV sits above the entry, and a separate wet head includes a molded sink, electric-flush toilet on an 18-gallon waste tank, and a proper wall-mounted shower head rather than a pull-out faucet. With a 20-gallon water tank, 110-volt generator and an optional full enclosure, the boat sleeps two couples.

Shoppers comparing Regal Boats 26 XO listings will find a heavily optioned, solidly built package; one show example was offered at $184,185, a saving of nearly $30,000 against MSRP for the spec included. When weighing a 26 XO for sale, confirm which Yamaha is fitted, since the 300 and 350 deliver different top speed and fuel numbers, and check for the options that define the boat — bow thruster, generator, air conditioning, power tower, forward sun pad and water heater — as well as condition items such as bottom paint and engine hours on used examples.
