Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Regal 2220 RX FasDeck 2010 vs Regal 2500 Bowrider 2010 — Which Deep Vee Fits Your Needs?
When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Regal 2220 RX FasDeck 2010 and the Regal 2500 Bowrider 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 2500 Bowrider 2010 measures 26,3 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 4,1 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal 2220 RX FasDeck 2010 at 22,2 feet (2010). At 38 lbs and 46 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 2500 Bowrider 2010 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Regal 2220 RX FasDeck 2010 caps at 11. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal 2500 Bowrider 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Regal 2500 Bowrider 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 13 passengers and at 26,3 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Regal 2220 RX FasDeck 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 11 that costs less to run day-to-day.
