The Campion 602 CC 2009 is a modified-V design and the Campion Explorer 622br SD 2012 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Campion 602 CC 2009 at 22,0 ft versus Campion Explorer 622br SD 2012 at 23,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Explorer 622br SD 2012 tips the scales at 2 470 lbs - 170 lbs less than the Campion 602 CC 2009 at 2 300 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 Explorer 622br SD 2012. 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 602 CC 2009 carries 64 gallons versus 60 gallons in the Campion Explorer 622br SD 2012. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 7 passengers - a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
