Page 23: Safety Labels
Safety On Board Safety awareness can’t be over emphasized. Safety on board needs to be the skipper’s number one priority. In this manual you will ﬁ nd many safety precautions and symbols to identify safety related items. Heed all safety precaution information. Remember, the skipper is responsible for the safety of his passengers and crew.
Page 24 Precautionary Labels Read and understand all safety labels afﬁ xed to your Regal boat. Most of the safety labels are found close to the helm, aft cockpit and or swim platform. The location of the labels may vary by model and the label list does not cover everything! Use common sense to analyze the result of an action on board your vessel.
Page 25: General Boating Safety
Safety On Board GENERAL BOATING SAFETY We understand that you are eager to get your Regal boat on the water. However, we strongly suggest that you thoroughly familiarize yourself and friends or members of your family with safe boating practices before setting out.
Page 26 CHAPTER 1 You must provide a Coast Guard approved personal ﬂ otation device (PFD) for every person on board. These PFD’s should be in good condition and easily accessible. Insist that non-swimmers and children on board wear a PFD at all times.
Page 27 Safety On Board Never drink and drive! As captain, you are responsible for the safety of your passengers and yourself. Alcohol and boating can be a dangerous combination. DO NOT mix them. Alcohol impairs the boat operators ability to make conscious decisions and react to emergency situations quickly.
Page 28: Waste
ﬁ re extinguishers, and personal ﬂ otation devices. Encourage a periodic maintenance check on all safety equipment. Contact your Regal dealer or marine professional for more information. Again, remember that the captain is responsible for his passengers and vessel.

Page 34: Visual Distress Signals
CHAPTER 1 Another type of liquefied gas is used today in automatic fire extinguishing systems which is used on select models. The canister gas is colorless and odorless, heavier than air and sinks to the lower bilge to extinguish ﬁ res. Since the year 2000 ingredients for ﬁ re extinguishers have changed to a more environmental friendly formula.
Page 35 Safety On Board All in all, each distress signal has certain pros and cons. There is no distress signal that is best under all situations. Pyrotechnics are recognized worldwide as superior distress signals. A downfall is they emit a very hot ﬂ ame that can cause burns and or ignite ﬂ ammable materials.

Page 42 CHAPTER 1 Communications EPIRB It is a good idea to carry communication gear such as a VHF-FM and/or HF transceivers set up for your operating area. Also, cell phones are useful in many coastal areas. Be sure to carry extra batteries. Also, mainly for offshore vessels, EPIRB’s are designed to quickly and accurately alert rescue forces, indicate an accurate distress position, and guide units to the distress scene.

2. Do not disable the carbon monoxide alarms that come with your Regal boat. Test the unit in accordance with the alarm manufacturers instructions. 3. Do not operate the engine for extended periods of time while in a conﬁ...
Page 44 CHAPTER 1 Blockage of exhaust outlets can cause carbon monoxide to accumulate in the cabin and cockpit area even when the hatches, windows, portholes and doors are open. Exhaust from another vessel alongside your boat, while docked or anchored, can emit poisonous CO gas inside the cabin and cockpit areas of your boat.
Page 45 Thoroughly ventilate cabin and cockpit areas. Determine the probable source of the carbon monoxide and correct the condition immediately. Regal has installed CO detectors on your boat. Have these detectors professionally calibrated at regular intervals. To help prevent carbon monoxide accumulation, ventilate your cabin and cockpit while underway.
Page 46 CHAPTER 1 Each Trip Make sure all exhaust clamps are in place and secure. Look for exhaust leaking from the exhaust system components, indicated by rust and or black streaking, water leaks, or corroded or cracked ﬁ ttings. Inspect all rubber exhaust hoses for burned or cracked areas. All rubber hoses should feel soft and be free of kinks.
Page 47: Boating Under The Influence
Safety On Board BOATING UNDER THE INFLUENCE WARNING FEDERAL LAWS PROHIBIT OPERATING A VESSEL UNDER THE INFLUENCE OF ALCOHOL OR DRUGS. THESE LAWS ARE VIGOROUSLY ENFORCED BY ALL ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES. Operating a vessel while intoxicated became a speciﬁ c federal offense effective in 1988.
Page 48 CHAPTER 1 Alcohol Myths And Facts Myth: Beer is less intoxicating than other alcoholic beverages. Fact: One 12 oz. can of beer has about the same amount of alcohol as a 5oz. glass of wine or a shot of liquor. Myth: Black coffee, fresh air, and a shower will sober the effects of alcohol.

Page 56: Weather & Water Conditions
CHAPTER 1 WEATHER & WATER CONDITIONS Before a boating outing check the weather conditions. As we all know the weather can change rapidly in many parts of the country. It does so sometimes without being predicted. NOAA weather radio reports are continuously available on designated frequencies installed on VHF radios and various handheld devices.
Page 57 Safety On Board Waves & Fog As the wind blows across water waves are created. The stronger the wind and increased distance across the water enlarges the wave action. Other factors that can cause problem situations for vessels are fog, currents, and tidal changes. Fog can develop inland on clear, calm mornings.

Page 59: Rules Of The Road
Rules Of The Road NAVIGATION RULES DEFINED The Navigation Rules set forth actions to be followed by boats to avoid collision. They are referred to as the “Rules of the Road”. There are two main parts referred to as the inland and international rules. The inland rules apply to vessels operating inside the boundaries of the United States.
Page 60: Navigation Rules
CHAPTER 2 NAVIGATION RULES Right Of Way 1. Cross waves at right angles. 2. When caught in heavy water or squalls, head either directly into the waves or at a slight angle. Reduce speed, but maintain enough power to maneuver your boat safely. 3.
Page 61 Rules Of The Road • Sailboats; they have the right-of-way over power boats. However, if a sailboat is using a prop to move forward, it is considered a powerboat even if the sails are up. • Remember the unwritten “rule of tonnage”. Basically a smaller tonnage vessel should take every effort to avoid close quarters with a larger tonnage vessel.
Page 62 CHAPTER 2 NAVIGATION RULES The Navigation Rules set forth 3 types of crossing situations- crossing, meeting, and overtaking. In each case, both boats are governed by special procedures. In a head-on meeting, both vessels must sound a single blast to give way toward starboard and pass to port.
Page 63 Rules Of The Road NAVIGATION RULES An overtaking boat is burdened, and is not the privileged craft, even though it approaches the danger zone of the overtaken boat. The overtaking boat ﬁ rst signals with a single blast if that boat desires to pass on the starboard side of the boat ahead, or a double blast if passing to port.
Page 64: Navigation Aids
CHAPTER 2 NAVIGATION AIDS Navigation aids are placed along coasts and navigable waters as a guide for mariners in determining their position in reference to land and hidden danger. Each aid provides speciﬁ c information. They form a continuous system of charted markers for accurate piloting on paper and on the water.

Page 67: Night Running
Rules Of The Road NIGHT RUNNING Boats operating between sunset and sunrise ( hours vary by state), or in conditions of reduced visibility, must use navigation lights. Nighttime operation, especially during bad weather and fog, can be dangerous. All Rules of the Road apply at night, but it is best to slow down and stay clear of all boats regardless of who has the right-of-way.
Page 68: Bridge Clearance
CHAPTER 2 BRIDGE CLEARANCE Be aware that your vessel requires a speciﬁ ed bridge clearance height. This height is a measured estimate from the waterline to the top of the highest object usually the power tower, radar or the masthead light depending on what tower equipment is installed.
Page 69: Engines
Pay careful attention to the sections on winterization if you live in freezing climates. Extensive damage can result if proper winter storage is not followed. Your Regal dealer has been factory trained on Regal boat systems. Consult your Regal dealer for further information regarding technical issues and parts.
Page 70: Engine Removal
It should be checked after each 50 hours of operation or if the vessel has run aground or hit a submerged object. Alignment should be checked by a Regal dealer or marine professional since special tools and procedures are required.
Page 71 Engines & Controls Catalyst Engines Due to federal and state regulations many newer marine engines are retroﬁ tted from the engine manufacturer with a catalytic converter system for a cleaner environment. The sheer numbers of these engines will ﬁ ll the marine propulsion market over the next few years. Simply stated, a catalytic converter utilizes extreme heat to reduce the engine’s output of hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide thus reducing pollutants.

Page 78 CHAPTER 3 Depth Gauge: The depth g auge is standard equipment on selected models. The depth gauge indicates the water depth under the keel of the boat. It features a shallow water alarm. By monitoring the water depth closely, damage to props and underwater hardware can be avoided.
Page 79 Engines & Controls Other Gauges & Indicators The optional gas vapor detector determines if there is a level of gasoline vapors that is unsafe in the engine room of the boat. If installed, turn on the unit and wait about one minute for it to do its safety test.
Page 80 CHAPTER 3 Located at the helm is another indicator device called a high water alarm. This component warns the skipper of a possible bilge emergency. There is an automatic ﬂ oat device installed at a predetermined bilge level. If water rises over this level the bilge switch sends a signal to the helm mounted alarm.
Page 81: Audible Alarms
Engines & Controls Audible Alarms Most Volvo and Mercruiser engines use audible alarms. They are designed to use sensors which pick up deviations from the normal operating parameters. Oil pressure and temperature sensors send a signal to a buzzer under the dash which sounds a high pitched alarm indicating a possible problem.
Page 82: Ignition Switch
CHAPTER 3 Ignition Switch Each ignition switch features 3 positions. In a clockwise direction they are off, run, and start. The start position is spring loaded and the key should be held in this position to engage the starter. Once the engine has started release the key from the start position.

The levers in the straight-up or 12 o’clock (neutral) position are detented and feature a push button (see illustration) which allows advancing...
Page 84 CHAPTER 3 Typical Binnacle Control You will hear a distinct sound and will “feel” the remote control in the neutral position. If you turn the key to the “start” position and the engine starter doesn’t crank over the engine make sure the remote control is in the neutral position.
Page 85 Systems ELECTRICAL The standard electrical system on board uses a low voltage system called direct current (DC for short). It is referred to as DC because current ﬂ ows one-way in the circuit. Direct Current (12 volt DC) Storage batteries (sometimes called wet-lead cell batteries) furnish 12 volt DC electricity to boat components.

Page 89 Systems DC Switches Following is a summary of direct current switches used on your Regal boat. Your boat may not use some of the switches mentioned because they represent optional equipment not installed on your vessel. Also, electrical components and speciﬁ cations can change at any time. These switches are illuminated for night operation.
Page 90 CHAPTER 4 (Acc.) Accessory This switch normally is unused at the factory and it may be utilized for any after market equipment installed on the boat. Make sure any added components are matched to the over current protection (fuse). Aft Bilge Pump This switch controls the bilge pump normally located in the aft cockpit under the front of the engine.
Page 91 Systems Exhaust This switch controls the optional Corsa exhaust system available on select engines. When activated exhaust is evacuated through the hull side verses the stern drive. Check with local and state authorities before using the system as various restrictions may be mandated. Fwd.
Page 92 CHAPTER 4 Horn This switch controls the audible electric horn signal. The horn is located at the starboard forward hull. It is protected by a stainless grille cover. Be sure to test the horn before each outing and learn the horn and bridge signals.

Page 111: Dock Line Basics
Vessel Operation DOCK LINE BASICS Most skippers use dock line terminology fairly loose but there is more to the basics than just bow or stern lines. There are several lines that can be secured to the bow and stern and depending on their direction and use, can be called other names.
Page 112 CHAPTER 5 Bow springs are secured at the vessels bow area. Forward spring lines lead forward from the boat to the dock and control movement toward the stern. After springs stem aft from the vessel, and stop movement ahead. Spring lines are used to prevent movement in a berth, ahead or astern.
Page 113 Vessel Operation The bow and stern lines should be relatively at a 45 degree angle with the dock. The stern line can be attached to the near-shore quarter cleat, but will work more efﬁ ciently to the offshore quarter cleat. The longer line will allow the boat ﬂ...
Page 114 CHAPTER 5 reverse the process. Secure a little slack in the other dock line, then slip your eye up through its loop and over the top of the pile. Your line can be dropped through the other eye. When debarking from a dock, it is easier to release the line from a cleat or piling, from on board the boat, as soon as you leave the dock.
Page 115: Twin Stern Drive Systems
Vessel Operation STERN DRIVE DOCKING Twin Stern Drive Systems As a general rule, inboard/outboard twin powered boats are fairly easy to back up and maneuver with a little knowledge and docking practice. One of the most important aspects of the docking and/or maneuvering process is to keep your calm in the wake of a busy marina.
Page 116: Twin Stern Drive Maneuvering
CHAPTER 5 Twin Stern Drive Maneuvering Twin stern drive vessel propellers are counter-rotating which will bal- ance steering torque. On most twin stern drive vessels the port pro- peller is left-handed and the starboard propeller is right-handed. Mark the propellers in case they ever to be changed or repaired at some point as they could be mismatched on reinstallation since they both ﬁ...
Page 117: Gathering Headway
Vessel Operation Gathering Headway As opposed to a boat with a single propeller, when a twin stern drive vessel’s engines are put in gear together, the vessel will make headway without the tendency to pull to the port or starboard. Of course the throttles must be in the same rpm range as read on the tachometers.
Page 118 CHAPTER 5 Turning When maneuvering at slow speeds the steering wheel is not normally used; the skipper uses the shift and throttle handles to control the vessels actions. A vessel’s stern may be pushed to one side or the other by mov- ing ahead or reversing with just one propeller.
Page 119 Vessel Operation Backing Down The twin stern drive vessel can use the throttles to slow down one or both engines as a help to steering when maintaining sternway. As an option, the skipper is able to stop one set of propellers for a higher control factor in reverse.
Page 120: Trim Angle
CHAPTER 5 TRIM ANGLE Stern drive boats have the ability to angle in or out their drive unit in relationship to the transom. This is accomplished by hydraulic shocks located on the stern drive along with an electrical sender unit that reads the drive angle and sends information to the dash trim gauge showing a reading.
Page 121 Vessel Operation Use Of Power Trim The power trim is normally used prior to accelerating onto a plane, after reaching the desired RPM or boat speed and when there is a change in water or boating conditions. Position passengers and equipment in the boat so that the weight is balanced correctly fore and aft as well as side to side.
Page 122 CHAPTER 5 Operation In “Bow Up” Position The “Bow Up” or out position is normally used for cruising, running with a choppy wave condition, or running at full speed. Excessive “bow up” trim will cause propeller ventilation resulting in propeller slippage. Use caution when operating in rough water or crossing another boat’s wake.
