Matching a modified vee Campion 595 OB SC 2009 against a deep vee Campion Explorer 822i 2013 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 Campion Explorer 822i 2013 measures 30,3 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 9,3 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion 595 OB SC 2009 at 21,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Explorer 822i 2013 tips the scales at 7 877 lbs — 5 531 lbs less than the Campion 595 OB SC 2009 at 2 346 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 430 hp, the Campion Explorer 822i 2013 has a 130-hp advantage over the Campion 595 OB SC 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 Explorer 822i 2013 carries 147 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Campion 595 OB SC 2009. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 1 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
