Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 vs Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2011 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a deep vee Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 against a modified vee Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2011 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 4080 Sportyacht 2011 measures 40,1 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 10,9 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 at 29,2 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 tips the scales at 685 lbs — 492 lbs more than the Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2011 at 193 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.
Bottom line: The Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2011 at 40,1 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 at 29,2 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
