Matching a modified vee Campion 602 CC 2009 against a deep vee Campion Allante 825 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 Allante 825 2013 measures 27,8 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 5,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion 602 CC 2009 at 22,0 feet (2009). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Allante 825 2013 tips the scales at 8 422 lbs — 8 399 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.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 430 hp, the Campion Allante 825 2013 has a 205-hp advantage over the Campion 602 CC 2009'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 Allante 825 2013 carries 111 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 Allante 825 2013 is rated for 12 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 Allante 825 2013 could be the deciding factor.
