When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Campion 602 CC 2009 and the Campion 622 WA 2009 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 602 CC 2009 at 22,0 ft versus Campion 622 WA 2009 at 23,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion 622 WA 2009 tips the scales at 262 lbs — 239 lbs less than the Campion 602 CC 2009 at 23 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.
Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 225 hp for the Campion 602 CC 2009 and 225 hp for the Campion 622 WA 2009. Real-world performance will come down more to which motor is actually bolted on, its load at the time, and whether it's a 4-stroke or 2-stroke setup. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Campion 622 WA 2009 carries 71 gallons versus 64 gallons in the Campion 602 CC 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 622 WA 2009 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Campion 602 CC 2009 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion 622 WA 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion 622 WA 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 23,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion 602 CC 2009 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
