Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 vs Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 - Boat Spec Comparison

Q: Which is the larger boat — the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 or the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008?

The Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 is the longer of the two at 29,0 feet overall. The Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 comes in at 22,2 feet, making it roughly 6,8 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.

Q: Which is easier to trailer — the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 or the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008?

For trailering, the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 has the edge at 39 lbs dry weight versus 685 lbs for the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.

Q: What is the maximum horsepower rating for these boats?

The Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 has a documented max rating of 375 hp. Engine specifications for the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 were not available in our database — check the OEM spec sheet or manufacturer's website for confirmation.

Q: How many people can each boat hold?

The Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 is Coast Guard rated for 1 passengers, while the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 is certified for 13. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.

Q: Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?

Both the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 and Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 share an 8 ft. 6 in. (2.6 m) beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.

Q: Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 or the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008?

The Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 has the bigger tank at 74 gallons, versus 54 gallons on the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011. That 20-gallon difference translates to roughly 60–100 nautical miles of additional range at cruising speed, depending on motor, load, and conditions.

Q: Are the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 and Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 from the same manufacturer?

Yes — both the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 and the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 are built by Regal. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.

Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation

Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 vs Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a deep vee Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 against a modified vee Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 measures 29,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 6,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 at 22,2 feet (2011). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 tips the scales at 685 lbs — 646 lbs less than the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 at 39 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.

The Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 tops out at 375 hp. Engine specs for the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 carries 74 gallons versus 54 gallons in the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 is rated for 13 passengers, while the Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Regal 2665 Commodore 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 13 passengers and at 29,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Regal 2250 Cuddy 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
