Both the Regal 2750 Cuddy 2008 and the Regal 38 Express 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 38 Express 2013 measures 38,0 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 10,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal 2750 Cuddy 2008 at 28,0 feet (2008). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 38 Express 2013 tips the scales at 15 200 lbs - 9 100 lbs less than the Regal 2750 Cuddy 2008 at 6 100 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.

For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Regal 38 Express 2013 is rated for 11 passengers, while the Regal 2750 Cuddy 2008 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regal 38 Express 2013 could be the deciding factor.
