REGENT Lands 30-Seaglider Order From XXV, First Deliveries as Early as 2027

XXV will detail the operating partner soon to launch member-only service along Northeast and Florida coasts.

Overview

  • The private members club chose REGENT's 12-passenger Viceroy seaglider for dock-to-dock coastal trips up to 180 miles at speeds reaching 180 mph.
  • Initial service is planned for U.S. East Coast corridors, including New YorkHamptons, BostonNantucket, Palm BeachMiami, and Miami–the Bahamas.
  • XXV says it will name a U.S. operator in the coming months to deploy and manage the fleet.
  • REGENT targets first handovers in 2027 while continuing prototype development following first human operations in 2025 and frequent water trials since March 2025.
  • REGENT cites more than $100 million raised, a company-reported $10 billion order pipeline, and $15 million in U.S. Marine Corps contracts as indicators of market momentum.
