Regal 20 Sport Bowrider 2012 vs Regal 3060 Express Cruiser 2010 — Which Deep Vee Fits Your Needs?

When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Regal 20 Sport Bowrider 2012 and the Regal 3060 Express Cruiser 2010 are deep vee designs with fiberglass construction — 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?

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Regal 3060 Express Cruiser 2010 measures 30,8 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 10,7 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal 20 Sport Bowrider 2012 at 20,2 feet (2012). At 35 lbs and 105 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 20 Sport Bowrider 2012 is rated for up to 9 people. Passenger data for the Regal 3060 Express Cruiser 2010 wasn't available.

Bottom line: The Regal 3060 Express Cruiser 2010 at 30,8 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Regal 20 Sport Bowrider 2012 at 20,2 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.
