Regal 42 Sport Coupe 2011 vs Regal Commodore 4060 2007 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Regal 42 Sport Coupe 2011 vs Regal Commodore 4060 2007 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Regal 42 Sport Coupe 2011 measures 42,3 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 38,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Regal Commodore 4060 2007 at 4,0 feet (2007). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Regal 42 Sport Coupe 2011 tips the scales at 188 lbs — 169 lbs more than the Regal Commodore 4060 2007 at 19 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 42 Sport Coupe 2011 at 42,3 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Regal Commodore 4060 2007 at 4,0 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.

Both the Regal 42 Sport Coupe 2011 and Regal Commodore 4060 2007 share an 13 ft. (4 m) beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
