The Campion 602b SC 2007 vs Campion LS 645i SC 2006 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Campion 602b SC 2007 at 23,0 ft versus Campion LS 645i SC 2006 at 21,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion 602b SC 2007 tips the scales at 247 lbs — 210 lbs more than the Campion LS 645i SC 2006 at 37 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 320 hp, the Campion LS 645i SC 2006 has a 95-hp advantage over the Campion 602b SC 2007'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 LS 645i SC 2006 carries 51 gallons versus 6 gallons in the Campion 602b SC 2007. 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 LS 645i SC 2006 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion 602b SC 2007 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion LS 645i SC 2006 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion LS 645i SC 2006 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 21,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion 602b SC 2007 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
