The Regal 2520 FasDeck 2008 is a deep-V design and the Regal 52 Sport Coupe 2011 is a modified-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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.

Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 52 Sport Coupe 2011 tips the scales at 34 400 lbs - 29 750 lbs less than the Regal 2520 FasDeck 2008 at 4 650 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.

Engine data for the Regal 52 Sport Coupe 2011 wasn't available in our records - check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Regal 52 Sport Coupe 2011 carries 450 gallons versus 62 gallons in the Regal 2520 FasDeck 2008. 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 52 Sport Coupe 2011 is rated for 16 passengers, while the Regal 2520 FasDeck 2008 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal 52 Sport Coupe 2011 could be the deciding factor.
