Regent Craft

Redefining maritime mobility through all-electric Seagliders™, creating a new category of high-speed, zero-emission coastal transportation.

Executive Brief

REGENT Craft Inc. is pioneering the future of maritime mobility through the development and manufacture of Seaglider™ vessels – a new category of all-electric, high-speed wing-in-ground effect (WIG) craft designed to combine the speed of an aircraft with the convenience and accessibility of a boat.

 

Designed to operate exclusively over water, Seagliders transition through three operating modes – from the dock, to hydrofoiling above the waves, to flight within one wingspan of the water’s surface – enabling high-speed coastal transportation while leveraging existing waterfront infrastructure and all-electric propulsion.

 

Headquartered in Rhode Island, USA, REGENT is a dual-use company developing its Seaglider platforms for both commercial transportation and defense applications. Its flagship, Viceroy, is designed for passenger and cargo transportation, while the autonomous Squire extends the technology to defense and other mission-specific applications. With commercial demand spanning six continents, REGENT is advancing toward scaled manufacturing and commercialization.
