I have been on this new boat. It is very well designed. Regal is going to sell a lot of this model.

It is cool, but very expensive. Have you seen the build sheet? I was surprised.

Looks like it lists for a little over $500k. Significantly cheaper than the Cruisers large bow-rider but also a lot less features. It’s a lot for a day boat and I don’t have enough ballast friends to justify a bow-rider that big.

Much different than my 36XO. No standard electric. No TV. $4,500 for RGBW lights? Don't get me wrong, I love my boat, but I was seriously considering this as we don't stay aboard. We're day boaters. Must be a typo on $26,000 for the generator and another $26,000 for the inverter system. Not sure I like have to open the starboard bow seat just to get to the A/C control. Probably should have been in the head area where the generator control is. Lot's of storage! I wish my 36XO had an aft anchor locker.

Will stay with our 4160 and lots of maintenance/service over the years but vessel like new and everything working/functioning (except the Faria Gages) .

I have a 33 OBX and I was waiting till they came out with a 36 SAV or a 36 OBX before I would have an interest in upgrading. This essentially is the 36OBX without calling it that. I would like to have some place to sleep a bit bigger than our 33 OBX and a stand up head and shower. I like everything about this boat other than the fact that there is no real sleep accommodations, even less than my 33 OBX and there is no true standup head. the rest of the boat is awesome. Love the fact that it has twin 425s, but I think I'm going to wait till they make an SAV version with the 36 hull. Hopefully that is coming. 80 percent of my boating is true day boating, with maybe my grandkids taking naps since we are down at the Jersey shore most of the time and we have a place down there so we don't need to sleep on the boat 80% of the time and it's critical we have a true bow rider for the 80% day boating we do. However, I do want to use my boat to run back to the Chesapeake Bay to catch up with my friends from there or do trips to St. Michaels, Annapolis, Baltimore, or even Cambridge and potentially stay on the boat. This one just won't support that. The 38 SAV will but in my opinion it's a bit big for the Jersey shore for the back bay runs in Skinny water. May a SAV version of the 36 hull is coming.
