When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Campion 595 OB BR 2009 and the Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 are modified vee designs with fiberglass construction — 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?
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Campion 595 OB BR 2009 at 21,0 ft versus Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 at 23,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion 595 OB BR 2009 tips the scales at 2 346 lbs — 1 925 lbs more than the Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 at 421 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 375 hp, the Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 has a 75-hp advantage over the Campion 595 OB BR 2009's 300-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 carries 56 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Campion 595 OB BR 2009. 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 Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion 595 OB BR 2009 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion Chase 650i SC 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 23,1 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion 595 OB BR 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
