When two boats share the same hull type — in this case both the Campion 602 CC 2009 and the Campion Allante 485 BR 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?
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Campion 602 CC 2009 measures 22,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 5,9 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion Allante 485 BR 2010 at 16,1 feet (2010). At 23 lbs and 94 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 225 hp, the Campion 602 CC 2009 has a 135-hp advantage over the Campion Allante 485 BR 2010's 90-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 602 CC 2009 carries 64 gallons versus 13 gallons in the Campion Allante 485 BR 2010. 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 602 CC 2009 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Campion Allante 485 BR 2010 caps at 5. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion 602 CC 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion 602 CC 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 22,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion Allante 485 BR 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 5 that costs less to run day-to-day.
