Construction on Regals continues to be impressive even in a pocket cruiser like the 242, where it would be easy to let down some of the quality found on the larger Commodores. The electrical system, for example, is completely loomed and secured into place, all of the harnesses use sturdy Mate-N-Lok harness connectors, and Regal even applies a heat-shrink protection to the electrical connectors to assure long and trouble free boating. All fuel hoses are double-clamped, the stainless-steel deck hardware is through-bolted into sturdy backing plates, and the tinted windshield uses tempered safety glass. The hull uses four layers of stitched fiberglass fabric, and the plywood stringers are fully encapsulated for protection. here

The cockpit draws heavily on the entertainment-oriented styling of Regal's Ventura line and, with the optional high-low table, there is a wrap-around seating area that converts easily to a sundeck. The rear settee is standard, and it can be quickly removed to open the cockpit for fishing, diving, or deck chairs. A transom door separates the swim step with four-step boarding ladder, and there is a large storage bin in the cockpit side. To port is a refreshment center with a removable 25 qt. Igloo ice chest underneath and an optional sink. [links]

Forward in the cabin is a U-shaped convertible dinette upholstered in a jazzy print, with a storage tray behind the backrests. But certainly the biggest surprise in this compact cruiser is the mid-cabin tucked under the raised helm area of the cockpit. Easy to enter, there's a full queen-sized berth (6'11 x 5') in a bright compartment with two opening portholes and a storage bin in the headboard. Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised to see owners of the 242 using this as the primary sleeping area, rather than converting the dinette to sleep in the traditional forward cabin area. With a privacy curtain, plenty of light and air, and ample headroom, the mid-cabin was anything but claustrophobic. [links]

Stepping below, there's a surprising amount of usable space for such a small boat, starting with full headroom. The galley is a compact module to port, with an Origo one-burner alcohol stove, icebox underneath the counter, and ample bins and lockers for weekend necessities. The head compartment is molded of fiberglass for easy maintenance and, like the rest of the 242, is comfortably sized for real people with a shower and portable toilet, plus ample storage and an opening port.

When he bought his first boat, he didn't realize the "night-and-day" difference between just cruising for the day and staying on the boat overnight to eat, sleep and shower. With six years of boating experience now under his belt, though, he knew exactly what to look for this time around. more

In fact, we were having such a blast that it seemed as though we arrived at the breakwater in no time at all. It would be nice if we could do all of our ocean tests out of Anaheim Bay, because it offers the perfect chance to see how a boat performs both on the open ocean and in the calm waters behind the breakwater.

There's a ton of storage under the berth, and when you're ready to call it a day, a full privacy curtain makes it easy to shut out the rest of the world. [links]

We took the boat to wide-open throttle, to see how fast the twin 240 hp MerCruiser Alpha stern drives could take us with two adults, 75 gallons of fuel and a full tank of water on board. With the engines revved up to 4,500 rpm, we topped out at 43.3 mph.

On the outside, the black grille with vertical slats was guarded by big headlights that were extended over the hood with the turn-signal lamps. The oval shape on the front fascia incorporated a plate with the BUICK name on the hood. A sculptured side profile with plastic bush-guards on the lower side protected the bodywork against shopping carts or bushes. In the rear, a full-length taillight was crossing the back of the car, over the tailgate. more

The Rendezvous was the first Buick truck built since 1923 and it featured a complex platform shared with the Chevrolet Venture MPV. It was followed by the Buick Enclave.

Inside, the 2002 Rendezvous featured up to three-row seats, offering room for up to seven passengers. Inside, the car gave up to the usual wood details and used metal trims for the door panels and dashboard. A four dial instrument cluster with a silver background and blue needles was offered on the whole range. It was offered with standard front bucket seats. A second row with captain seats was available. [links]
