2023 Regal 26 XO

Step aboard the 26 XO and the first thing you notice is how well Regal has used every inch. The wraparound lounge flows naturally into the cockpit, with a multi-position backrest that lets you face the action or recline in the sun. The wide swim platform and walk-through make it easy to gear up for a dip or load coolers without stumbling over seats. Below, the cabin feels far larger than a 26-footer has any right to—tall backrests, clever storage tucked under cushions, and real overnight comfort instead of “just in case” berths. Up at the helm, digital controls, a clean dash layout, and a flip-up bolster keep you confident and comfortable whether you’re idling into the slip or stretching your legs on open water.

This 26 XO really shines in local waters where conditions can change from calm mornings to choppy afternoons. The outboard setup makes it shallow-water friendly around sandbars and coves, while still having the legs to cover distance on larger bays and lakes. With a proper cabin, enclosed head, and convertible seating, it suits long dockside lunches, sunset cocktail runs, or quick weekend overnights without needing a bigger slip. The efficient Yamaha power and Regal’s hull design help keep fuel stops down and ride comfort up, making it a practical choice for boaters who want a single do-it-all platform for exploring, entertaining, and the occasional mini-cruise.
