Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007 vs Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008: Same Brand, Different Boat
The Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007 vs Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story: intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007 at 19,0 ft versus Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 at 20,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 tips the scales at 3 400 lbs - 600 lbs less than the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007 at 2 800 lbs. That difference is meaningful if you're working within a half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck's tow rating, especially once you factor in a motor, gear, and fuel.
The Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 tops out at 300 hp. Engine specs for the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007 aren't listed - confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 carries 42 gallons versus 30 gallons in the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Regal 2000 Bowrider 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 9 passengers and at 20,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Regal 1900 Bowrider 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
