Regal 28 Express 2013 vs Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a deep vee Regal 28 Express 2013 against a modified vee Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2010 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 2010 measures 40,1 feet overall (2010), giving it roughly 11,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal 28 Express 2013 at 28,8 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 28 Express 2013 tips the scales at 7 585 lbs — 7 392 lbs more than the Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2010 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.

The Regal 28 Express 2013 is rated for up to 8 people. Passenger data for the Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2010 wasn't available.

Bottom line: The Regal 4080 Sportyacht 2010 at 40,1 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Regal 28 Express 2013 at 28,8 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.
