Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Regal 1900 Bowrider 2008 vs Regal 4460 Commodore Express 2009 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a deep vee Regal 1900 Bowrider 2008 against a modified vee Regal 4460 Commodore Express 2009 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

At 31 lbs and 22 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.
The Regal 1900 Bowrider 2008 carries a rated maximum of 270 hp. Engine data for the Regal 4460 Commodore Express 2009 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Regal 4460 Commodore Express 2009 carries 328 gallons versus 3 gallons in the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2008. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Bottom line: The Regal 4460 Commodore Express 2009 at 44,6 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Regal 1900 Bowrider 2008 at 19,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
