2009 Regal 19.9 Bowrider

Slip into the captain’s chair of this 19.9 and the first thing you notice is how Regal squeezed big-boat comfort into a trailer-friendly footprint. The wraparound seating up front gives friends a true lounge space, while the deep cockpit keeps everyone feeling secure when the afternoon chop picks up. Regal’s hull design pops onto plane quickly, even with a full crew and gear, so tubing runs and wakeboard starts feel effortless. Storage is tucked under almost every cushion, leaving the deck clean and uncluttered. The helm is simple and intuitive, with clear analog gauges and a sporty wheel that makes carving tight turns genuinely fun.

For the variety of inland lakes, winding rivers, and protected waterways common in this region, a 19.9-foot bowrider hits a sweet spot. It’s compact enough for easy trailering and launch ramps with limited space, yet offers plenty of room for family and friends to spread out for an all-day cruise. The Regal’s responsive handling makes navigating narrow channels and busy weekend traffic far less stressful. Its size also keeps fuel consumption in check, ideal for those long, lazy loops around the lake. Shallow coves, sandbar hangouts, and evening shoreline cruises are exactly what this style of boat was built to enjoy.
