There’s nothing quite like seeing Regulator pups living their best lives on the water.
Your dog belongs right next to you on your center console boat, and we’ve made it easy to bring your four-legged friend along.
Our starboard dive and "dog" door is just the beginning. With non-skid decks, Sunbrella® marine fabric, and freshwater washdowns, Regulator ensures your dog’s comfort on the water.
Hopping Onboard & Staying Cool
-
Our integrated starboard boarding & dive door is practically a dog door, making it easy for your pup to get on and off the boat.
-
Use the raw or freshwater washdowns to rinse off saltwater.
-
Non-skid decks are heat-resistant, so your dog’s paws stay safe from hot surfaces.
-
Forward sun shades and automated rear shades provide plenty of shade on sunny days.
-
On our larger models, you may also see pups in the cabin, enjoying the A/C:)

Dressing the Part
Your dog can show off their Regulator spirit with our high-quality dog collars (shop here). Made with tough nylon webbing that resists fraying and brass rings that stand up to rust and corrosion, these collars are built to last. Stylish, practical, and 1.25" wide for comfort, these collars are proudly made in the USA, just a tail’s wag away from Portland, Maine.

There’s nothing quite like seeing Regulator pups living their best lives on the water. Check out some of our favorite photos and videos of these dogs having a blast on the water. It’s clear that when they’re on a Regulator, the fun never stops.
We’d love to see your pups out on the water, too. Tag us on social media using #RegulatorBoats so we can see how your dog enjoys life on the water.
