I have heard that they indeed build a quality boat now. I have been on a
few and liked the layout and attention to details.

The only thing I don't buy is that ISO 9000 crap. All it means is that a
manufacturer consistently builds a product to a given standard. They can
build a crappy product consistently and still be ISO 9000 certified.

Things are changing though as others saw that flaw in the current ISO 9000
certification process. They have a new certification process in the works.
I don't know what it is called though.

JimH,
I had a buddy that had a 27' Regal. Very nice boat.

I had a marina neighbor who had the Regal 420, the exterior looked like
your typical bubble boat, but the interior was very plush.

Interesting. I recently received this in my email box from them:

Commodore 4260
Heads turn quicker. Hearts beat faster. And a lifestyle is
expressed instantly in the eloquent lines and luxury of the 4260. Her
breathtaking beauty, the exquisitely crafted Cherrywood interior and
stunning Ocean Trac performance have won accolades worldwide and
stimulated a legion of home-grown imitators. Yet, unduplicated in all
aspects of design and completeness, the 4260 achieves best in class and
measurably exceeds the expectations of the world's most sophisticated
yacht owners.
