REGENT Craft, the developer and manufacturer of Seaglider™ vessels, announced a Seaglider order from ‘XXV,’ a private members club that offers innovative experiences centered around premier coastal destinations. The agreement marks a new category of Seaglider customer, highlighting demand from mobility operators seeking faster, more seamless, and more elevated connectivity between coastal hubs.
XXV’s order totals 30 of the 12-passenger Viceroy Seaglider vessels for U.S. deployment. The Viceroy vessel is designed for convenient, comfortable dock-to-dock travel. Passengers board directly at the water’s edge, then the craft rises onto hydrofoils to offer a high-speed, smooth ride through busy ports, before flying just above the water on a cushion of air in ground effect at speeds up to 180 miles per hour for routes up to 180 miles. The interior of the cabin features high ceilings and large windows, and the unique all-electric Seaglider operations ensure a quieter, smoother ride compared to other existing and emerging transportation options.
XXV plans to begin Seaglider operations on the U.S. East Coast, with an initial focus on the Northeast and Florida, serving routes including New York to the Hamptons, Boston to Nantucket, Palm Beach to Miami, and Miami to the Bahamas. REGENT will deliver the first Seaglider vessels to XXV as early as 2027.
“We designed Seaglider vessels to remove friction from coastal travel, and XXV is applying that capability to create a member experience centered on our shared goals of convenience, comfort, and connection,” said Billy Thalheimer, co-founder and CEO of REGENT. “This partnership allows us to bring the benefits of Seaglider vessels directly to XXV members, offering a more seamless and enjoyable way to experience coastal destinations.”
“REGENT’s Seaglider vessels transform travel from a constraint into an opportunity,” said Neill Etheridge co-founder, XXV. Jamie Petty, co-founder, XXV, added: “Our partnership will enable us to deliver a unique passenger experience that reclaims time and creates space for more meaningful moments between destinations.”
XXV will announce a high-profile U.S. operator in the coming months.
