Introduction
Boating is becoming more popular each and every year.
ere are numerous types of recreational vessels on our
waterways today involved in an every growing number
of activities. erefore, as a Regal yacht owner it is of the
highest priority to learn about general boating practices
before operating your yacht.
Your Regal yacht dealer will answer many questions and
provide valuable “hands on” information during the
completion of the new boat delivery process. In addition,
your dealer has received special factory training on the
product line and his services should be employed to solve
any technical problems and periodic maintenance beyond
the scope of this manual. Also, your Regal yacht dealer
carries a line of factory approved parts and accessories.
Your Regal yacht dealer can provide information regarding
national training organizations such as the U.S. Power
Squadron and United States Coast Guard Auxiliary. Along
with other organizations and literature, they can help build
your “boating savvy” by developing the necessary skills
and awareness to be a safe and condent skipper.
Also,yourlocallibrarycanassistinprovidingrecommended
boating literature such as Chapman Piloting Seamanship
& Boat Handling by Elbert S. Maloney.
Also, boating information is available on the internet.
Remember, waterway conditions can change in a
heartbeat. Knowing how to react quickly comes from
experience and knowledge which can be gained through
boating education. Welcome aboard!

Chapter 1
I know I speak for everyone at Regal when I welcome you to the ever-growing family
of Regal yacht owners. You’ve chosen a yacht that is recognized worldwide for its stan-
dard of excellence. Each step in construction has been carefully scrutinized to assure
safety, performance, reliability and comfort for both your passengers and yourself.
Your yacht is certified by the National Marine Manufacturers Association. It also
complies with the applicable standards set by the United States Coast Guard , Ameri-
can Boat and Yacht Council and the International Marine Certification Institute. Your
Regal yacht was built with the same attention to detail and quality of construction
that we would expect in a yacht we would purchase ourselves.
Whether you’re a veteran boater or a newcomer, we strongly urge you to read this
yacht owner’s manual thoroughly. Familiarize yourself with the various components
of your yacht, and heed the safety precautions noted herein.
If you have questions that are not covered in this manual, please consult your autho-
rized Regal yacht dealer for assistance, phone the Regal factory at

Chapter 1
Your Regal yacht owner’s manual has been compiled
with information covering both 42 Grande Coupe and
Fly models to assist you in operating your cra with
safety and pleasure. is manual targets specic details
of Regal related systems and components along with their
location, operation and maintenance that normally is not
found in the vendor information. In addition, vendor
related equipment information is located within the yacht
documentation package.
e Regal yacht owner’s manual is not to be thought of
as a complete shop technical document. In addition to
the system chapters, there is troubleshooting information
devoted to select current standard and optional
equipment.
Beyond the owner’s manual your Regal yacht dealer has
received special factory training and his services should
be employed to solve more technical problems.
Call 407-851-4360 or go to the internet at www.
RegalBoats.com to nd the closest Regal yacht dealership.
In keeping with its commitment to improvement Regal
Marine Industries, Inc. is continually upgrading the
product line.
Regal notes that all dimensions, specications, models,
standard and optional equipment is subject to change
without notice at any time.
Note that the current owner’s manual is duplicated on
a SD card (PDF format) which can be opened with the
standard onboard Garmin plotter. Follow the directions
on the SD card case for lauching the owner’s manual using
the Garmin plotter or refer to the “glass cockpit” found
later in this manual.
If desired the SD card can be downloaded on a desktop
or lap top computer and printed as a PDF.
An owner’s information packet is located on the vessel.
Read and become familiar with the materials. is packet
contains valuable literature on your propulsion package,
standard and optional equipment, systems, various care
and cleaning instructions along with component warranty
information.
Normally the owner’s packet is located in one of the cabin
drawers. Keep the information packet in a clean, dry
location for prompt access as needed.
