Common questions
What does a Regal 42 XO cost?
A pre-owned 2022 Regal 42 XO typically costs between $750,000 and $950,000. The final price depends heavily on engine hours, optional equipment like a Seakeeper gyrostabilizer, overall condition, and service history. Market demand and the vessel's location can also influence the specific asking price for the boat.
What are the common issues with the Regal 42 XO?
The Regal 42 XO is generally well-regarded, but like any complex vessel, potential issues can arise. Buyers should closely inspect the integration of the advanced Garmin electronics and ensure all automated systems, like the retractable hardtop, function smoothly. Due to its performance nature, minor gelcoat stress cracks could be present.
How does the Regal 42 XO compare to other day cruisers in its class?
The 42XO is an excellent option for its size, capacity, and overall versatility. There aren’t many boats in this category and size that offer two full cabins with two heads, or the option of a full head with a walk-in shower plus a separate compartment that can be used as a service bar or coffee station. Options such as Seakeeper stabilization, a generator, gas or diesel power, and a washer/dryer are also uncommon in this class, making the 42XO well suited for weekend getaways and longer trips.
What is the fuel consumption on a Regal 42 XO?
Fuel consumption on a Regal 42 XO with triple Yamaha 425hp outboards is typically around 45-55 gallons per hour at a comfortable cruising speed of 30-35 mph. This yields a fuel economy of approximately 0.6 to 0.7 miles per gallon. Actual performance will vary based on sea conditions, load, and trim.
Is the Regal 42 XO good for offshore use?
Yes, the Regal 42 XO is capable of offshore use in favorable conditions. Its deep-V hull design provides a stable and dry ride, while the triple outboard configuration offers reliability. However, its primary design is as a coastal and near-offshore cruiser rather than a dedicated blue-water vessel for extreme, long-range passages.
What is the resale value of a Regal 42 XO?
The Regal 42 XO generally has a strong resale value for its class, benefiting from high demand for large, outboard-powered express boats. While all boats depreciate, a well-maintained example with popular options like a Seakeeper tends to hold its value better than the industry average, especially within the first five years.
What are the annual ownership costs for a Regal 42 XO?
Annual ownership costs for a Regal 42 XO typically range from 8-10% of its value. Major expenses include engine servicing for the triple outboards, insurance, dockage or storage fees, and periodic bottom painting. A contingency fund for unexpected repairs to complex systems like the generator or gyrostabilizer is also prudent.
How does the Regal 42 XO compare to other sport yachts in its class?
The Regal 42 XO competes against other premium outboard-powered sport yachts. Key competitors include the Tiara 43 LE, Formula 430 Super Sport Crossover, and Sea Ray Sundancer 400 Outboard. These models offer similar blends of day-boat functionality, overnight accommodations, and high-performance capabilities with the convenience of outboard power.
What should I look for during a survey of a Regal 42 XO?
During a survey, pay special attention to the triple outboard engines, requesting compression tests and full service records. Thoroughly test all onboard systems, including the generator, air conditioning, Seakeeper, and retractable cockpit hardtop. An inspector should also check for any moisture intrusion and carefully examine the hull for stress or impact.
