Is this the perfect Aussie family boat?

Introducing Regal’s new 34 XO… the boat that does it all and under 35 feet. You want protection, a good offshore hull, accomodation, serious fishing capability, watersports, foldout terrace doors, easy docking and handling… this is the answer. It’s 3 of my favourite styles rolled into one - this is going to be the new Aussie favourite.

It’s the little things that make a big difference on a day out… things like air-con (and placements, refrigeration/ice makers, shade, digital switching to avoid going down below (more on this soon). G’day from Key Largo 🐊🫡

Create art. Or play it safe. The choice is yours.

One of the best parts of building a Chris-Craft is just how far you can take the customisation.

Hull colours. Painted or gelcoat finishes. Upholstery. Stitching. Teak. Decking. Flooring. Details.

Build something completely unique that you’ll want to keep for life, or spec it timelessly with resale in mind.

There’s no right answer.

That’s the beauty of Chris-Craft. You make it yours.

Introducing the all-new Chris-Craft Launch 27.

A completely new generation of one of Chris-Craft’s most iconic models, combining classic Launch styling with a much more modern approach to design, functionality and onboard space.

New details like the stepped cockpit walkthrough and integrated handrail make moving around the boat easier, while the fit and finish is classic Chris-Craft.

The standout on this boat has to be the combination of the deep brown painted hull and flush teak decking, seamlessly integrated into the painted top deck.

It’s unmistakably a Chris-Craft, just more refined, functional and modern than ever.

For existing Launch owners, this is a very cool evolution of a familiar favourite.

A legacy worth protecting.

We’re proud to stand behind Grady-White and the remarkable decision to protect its people, culture and craftsmanship for generations to come. A true example of leadership that puts legacy before profit.
