Matching a modified vee Campion 595i SC 2009 against a deep vee Campion Explorer 602 CC 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Campion 595i SC 2009 at 21,0 ft versus Campion Explorer 602 CC 2013 at 22,3 ft. At 34 lbs and 23 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 power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 320 hp, the Campion 595i SC 2009 has a 95-hp advantage over the Campion Explorer 602 CC 2013's 225-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 602 CC 2013 carries 64 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Campion 595i SC 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 595i SC 2009 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 602 CC 2013 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion 595i SC 2009 could be the deciding factor.
