The Regulator 28 impresses us with its blend of build characteristics, speed and advanced features, positioning it as a top choice for offshore anglers. Its redesigned T-top with enhanced ventilation improves comfort and safety on the water.
Twin Yamaha F350s make for high-speed trips to the grounds, as well as for confident response in big seas. The standard Seakeeper Ride system works in tandem with Regulator’s acclaimed non-stepped, deep-V hull in making trips as smooth as possible. The boat weighs in at 9,480 pounds, a testament to its solid construction designed to withstand the rigors of offshore conditions. Back dockside, a newly standard engine-flushing system rids the motors of salt.
Comfortable helm seating makes the 28 easy to operate.

Designed for serious angling, the Regulator 28 features a suite of fishing-friendly elements, such as a tackle center, dual pressurized transom livewells, locking rod racks, and a whopping 1,248 quarts of storage distributed across various compartments. These elements are complemented by an array of customizable options, including tackle storage upgrades, integrated Garmin electronics, and various upholstery choices, allowing buyers to tailor their vessel to personal preferences and specific needs.

A spacious optional head is inside the console and easily accessed. An available sunshade keeps the bow cool. Cockpit cushions affix with magnets, meaning they deploy and stow easily, but won’t blow away. The new optional teak ladderback helm chairs evince luxury, whether fishing or entertaining. We say: Order these.
In summary, the Regulator 28 should top the list for boat buyers seeking to combine serious fishing capability with luxury and comfort and the kind of confidence at sea only found when quality is underfoot.
