The Campion 600 OB BR 2009 is a modified-V design and the Campion Explorer 622 WA 2013 is a deep-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 622 WA 2013 measures 23,5 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 3,5 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion 600 OB BR 2009 at 20,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Explorer 622 WA 2013 tips the scales at 2 620 lbs - 274 lbs less than the Campion 600 OB BR 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 300 hp, the Campion 600 OB BR 2009 has a 75-hp advantage over the Campion Explorer 622 WA 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 622 WA 2013 carries 71 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Campion 600 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 600 OB BR 2009 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 622 WA 2013 caps at 8. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion 600 OB BR 2009 could be the deciding factor.
