Regal 30 Express 2012 vs Regal 3350 Sport Cruiser 2008 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a deep vee Regal 30 Express 2012 against a modified vee Regal 3350 Sport Cruiser 2008 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 3350 Sport Cruiser 2008 measures 34,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 4,6 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal 30 Express 2012 at 29,4 feet (2012). At 94 lbs and 114 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The Regal 3350 Sport Cruiser 2008 tops out at 2 hp. Engine specs for the Regal 30 Express 2012 aren't listed — confirm with a dealer before selecting an outboard.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Regal 3350 Sport Cruiser 2008 carries 186 gallons versus 1 gallons in the Regal 30 Express 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Bottom line: The Regal 3350 Sport Cruiser 2008 at 34,0 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Regal 30 Express 2012 at 29,4 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.
