The Campion 622i Walkaround 2005 vs Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013 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 622i Walkaround 2005 at 22,0 ft versus Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013 at 23,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion 622i Walkaround 2005 tips the scales at 342 lbs — 303 lbs more than the Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013 at 39 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 Explorer 602i SC 2013 has a 95-hp advantage over the Campion 622i Walkaround 2005'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 622i Walkaround 2005 carries 50 gallons versus 6 gallons in the Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 6 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.
