2025 Regal LX43

Thirty-nine hours. On a 2025 Regal LX43, the flagship of Regal's entire outboard lineup. Stock #4944 is a 44-foot day yacht in steel grey with a black boot stripe, twin Mercury 600 hp V12 Verados, and effectively no use on it at all.

The signature feature is the pair of terrace doors. At the push of a button, the cockpit sides fold outward and down, widening the aft deck out over the water on both sides. It converts the boat from a 13-foot-2-inch beam to something considerably wider the moment you stop, and it is genuinely transformative at anchor: the cockpit stops being a cockpit and becomes a deck at the waterline. Very few builders offer anything comparable.

Power is two Mercury V12s making 1,200 horsepower combined. The V12 Verado steers its gearcase independently of the powerhead, which is what allows two 600s to sit close together and gives extraordinary low-speed control, especially through the joystick. It is also a two-speed, so hole shot on a 28,000 lb boat is strong and cruising rpm stays low and quiet. Underneath is Regal's OceanTrac2 hull, engineered for a stable, dry ride in genuinely offshore conditions, and there are 498 gallons of fuel aboard.

The rest is yacht specification. A hardtop with a retractable sunroof and PowerShade system, air conditioning in both the cabin and the cockpit, a cabin with a convertible queen berth, a full galley with refrigerator, sink and microwave, an enclosed head with a shower, flat-screen TVs, and premium wood cabinetry. The helm carries triple Garmin touchscreens in a full glass cockpit with GPS, radar, sonar, depthsounder, VHF, digital switching, and joystick piloting with positioning control.

Why this is the right boat: if you want a 44-foot entertaining platform that you can dock yourself with a joystick, run in comfort on any water, and cool down with air conditioning in the cockpit rather than just below, the LX43 is close to unique. At 39 hours you are buying a new boat with the first depreciation already absorbed and no build wait.
