Regulator 28 for Sale
For anglers who refuse to compromise between offshore performance and build quality, the Regulator 28 for sale is one of the strongest used center consoles on the market right now. This 2018 example is powered by twin Yamaha F250 four-strokes with 610 hours — both engines on the same service schedule, compression tested, and running strong with full records. The Regulator 28 is built with a hand-laid fiberglass hull and resin-infused deck that sets it apart from production competitors, and this boat comes fully rigged with a Garmin electronics package, T-top with spreader lights, livewell, and 200-gallon fuel capacity for true offshore range. Located in Charleston, SC — sea trial available, no known issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
The Regulator 28 is hand-laid and resin-infused in the United States, resulting in a notably stiffer and lighter hull than most production competitors. Build quality and long-term structural integrity are the primary reasons buyers choose Regulator over similarly priced alternatives.
The Regulator 28 is rated for twin outboards up to 600hp total. The most common configurations are twin Yamaha F250s or twin Mercury 250s, though twin F300s are available for buyers who want maximum performance.
The Regulator 28 carries 200 gallons of fuel. With twin F250s at cruise, expect a range of approximately 200–280 nautical miles depending on sea conditions and speed — comfortably capable for offshore fishing runs.
The 28 is widely praised for its offshore handling. Its deep-V modified hull entry and stiff resin-infused construction deliver a dry, controlled ride in conditions that push other center consoles of similar size.
Regulators hold their value better than most production center consoles. A well-maintained 28 with documented service history and original Yamaha engines consistently commands strong resale prices, making it one of the safer used boat purchases in this size range.
