Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Regal 2250 Cuddy 2008 vs Regal Boats 28 Express SOLD 2022 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Regal 2250 Cuddy 2008 vs Regal Boats 28 Express SOLD 2022 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 350 hp, the Regal Boats 28 Express SOLD 2022 has a 30-hp advantage over the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2008's 320-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Regal Boats 28 Express SOLD 2022 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2008 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal Boats 28 Express SOLD 2022 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Regal Boats 28 Express SOLD 2022 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 29,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Regal 2250 Cuddy 2008 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
