Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 vs Regal 46 Sport Coupe 2013: Which Deep-V Boat Fits Your Needs?
Both the Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 and the Regal 46 Sport Coupe 2013 are deep-V designs, both built in fibreglass, so 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 46 Sport Coupe 2013 measures 46,0 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 16,8 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 46 Sport Coupe 2013 tips the scales at 25 300 lbs - 18 450 lbs less than the Regal 2665 Express Cruiser 2009 at 6 850 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 46 Sport Coupe 2013 at 46,0 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.
