Both the Regal 2220 RX FasDeck 2009 and the Regal 2300 Bowrider 2010 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 2220 RX FasDeck 2009 at 22,2 ft versus Regal 2300 Bowrider 2010 at 24,0 ft. At 3 800 lbs and 3 870 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.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Regal 2300 Bowrider 2010 is rated for 12 passengers, while the Regal 2220 RX FasDeck 2009 caps at 11. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal 2300 Bowrider 2010 could be the deciding factor.
