Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Regulator 24 FS 2011 vs Regulator 28 2022 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Regulator 24 FS 2011 vs Regulator 28 2022 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.
The Regulator 24 FS 2011 carries a rated maximum of 350 hp. Engine data for the Regulator 28 2022 wasn't available in our records — check the manufacturer's spec sheet before sizing a motor.Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Regulator 28 2022 carries 219 gallons versus 15 gallons in the Regulator 24 FS 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Regulator 28 2022 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Regulator 24 FS 2011 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Regulator 28 2022 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Regulator 28 2022 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 28,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Regulator 24 FS 2011 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
