Ten Seaglider order gives Regent a firm Latam presence
Synerjet has a presence in Latin America and the Caribbean, offering mobility solutions with regional operations and continuous customer support, while also representing other strong global market brands.
With over 32,000km of coastline, Latin America is a prime market for enhanced coastal mobility.

Regent Craft, a US developer and manufacturer of Seaglider vessels, has received an order for 10 Seaglider vessels from Synerjet, a Latin American aviation services and aircraft sales company specialising in business aviation and premium mobility solutions. The agreement expands Regent’s global customer base and underscores growing demand for the innovative high-speed, all-electric coastal transportation solution.

Synerjet's order includes 10 of Regent’s 12-passenger Viceroy Seaglider vessels. With over 32,000km of coastline, global coastal hubs such as Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires, and over two million passengers travelling between Seaglider-accessible routes per year, Latin America is a prime market for enhanced coastal mobility.

Synerjet understands the expectations of customers who value speed, reliability and an elevated travel experience,” says Billy Thalheimer, co-founder and CEO of Regent. “Seaglider vessels are purpose-built to meet those expectations, and this order reflects the growing role Seagliders will play in connecting coastal regions more efficiently and sustainably.”

Synerjet has a well-established presence in Latin America and the Caribbean, offering comprehensive mobility solutions with regional operations and continuous customer support, while also representing other strong global market brands.

Regent’s Seaglider represents a compelling new category of mobility,” adds Fabio Rebello, CEO, Synerjet. “By combining aircraft-like speed with dock-to-dock convenience and zero-emission operations, Seagliders allow us to expand our service offering and unlock new regional routes that were previously impractical or underserved.”

The Viceroy Seaglider vessel offers direct shoreline boarding, smooth hydrofoil transit and high-speed wing-in-ground-effect flight, pairing aircraft-like performance with a quiet, all-electric ride in a bright, spacious cabin.

Synerjet and Regent will work closely to define initial operating markets and infrastructure plans in the coming months. Regent expects to deliver the first Seaglider vessels to Synerjet as early as 2029.
