Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Regal 1900 Bowrider 2010 vs Regal 2200 Bowrider 2011: A Close Look at Two Deep-V Boats
Both the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2010 and the Regal 2200 Bowrider 2011 are deep-V designs, both built in fibreglass, so the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Regal 1900 Bowrider 2010 at 19,8 ft versus Regal 2200 Bowrider 2011 at 22,2 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 2200 Bowrider 2011 tips the scales at 3 700 lbs - 600 lbs less than the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2010 at 3 100 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.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Regal 2200 Bowrider 2011 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Regal 1900 Bowrider 2010 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal 2200 Bowrider 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Regal 2200 Bowrider 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 10 passengers and at 22,2 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Regal 1900 Bowrider 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 8 that costs less to run day-to-day.
