Regal LX9 (2026-)



Brief Summary

Constructed by Regal Boats—a family-held American shipbuilder active for over fifty years—the LX9 stands as the flagship model within their LX outboard series. Built around their proprietary FasTrac hull architecture, which incorporates full step technology to lessen drag and improve fuel efficiency, the shipyard developed this model as a dedicated premium day-cruiser. It provides recreational boaters, families, and watersports enthusiasts with a broad, stable platform optimized for all-day lake outings, harbor runs, and sandbar social gatherings.

The main floor arrangement focuses on perimeter-maximizing benching, featuring full-width stern upholstery, dual rear-facing recliners, and a bow lounge with deep seating wells. Below the passenger-side console sits an enclosed head compartment complete with a synthetic countertop, sink, and chemical toilet for mid-day changing and privacy. Key customizable additions include a powered hardtop or power tower, twin Yamaha outboard engines up to 500 horsepower, a Seakeeper 1 gyroscopic motion dampener, a bow thruster, and dual 12-inch glass helm touchscreens.

KEY FEATURES:

  • FasTrac Hull Engineering: A stepped bottom profile reduces water friction to deliver higher cruising velocities and improved fuel economy.
  • Dual Rear UltraLounges: Multi-position stern sunpads adjust to face forward or aft, providing flexible lounging options over the swim platform.
  • Integrated Enclosed Head: A private compartment built into the port console offers a sink and toilet for added convenience during longer day trips.
  • Center Walk-Through Deck: An open interior path from the stern swim platform through to the forward lounge allows safe, balanced movement on board.
