Campion 645i BR 2009 vs Campion LS 705i SC 2006 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Campion 645i BR 2009 vs Campion LS 705i 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 645i BR 2009 at 23,0 ft versus Campion LS 705i SC 2006 at 23,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion 645i BR 2009 tips the scales at 4 037 lbs — 3 582 lbs more than the Campion LS 705i SC 2006 at 455 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 — 320 hp for the Campion 645i BR 2009 and 320 hp for the Campion LS 705i SC 2006. 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 LS 705i SC 2006 carries 69 gallons versus 56 gallons in the Campion 645i BR 2009. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.

Both boats are rated for 9 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.

Bottom line: The Campion 645i BR 2009 and Campion LS 705i SC 2006 are closely matched on the specs that matter most. Test-ride both on the water you actually use, check current dealer pricing, and factor in long-term service access before you sign.

Campion 645i BR 2009 vs Campion LS 705i SC 2006 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Campion 645i BR 2009 or the Campion LS 705i SC 2006?
The Campion LS 705i SC 2006 is the longer of the two at 23,0 feet overall. The Campion 645i BR 2009 comes in at 23,0 feet, making it roughly 0,0 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Campion 645i BR 2009 or the Campion LS 705i SC 2006?
For trailering, the Campion LS 705i SC 2006 has the edge at 455 lbs dry weight versus 4 037 lbs for the Campion 645i BR 2009.

How many people can each boat hold?
The Campion 645i BR 2009 is Coast Guard rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion LS 705i SC 2006 is certified for 9. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Campion 645i BR 2009 and Campion LS 705i SC 2006 share an 8 ft. 6 in. (2.59 m) beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
Which boat has the larger fuel tank — the Campion 645i BR 2009 or the Campion LS 705i SC 2006?

Yes — both the Campion 645i BR 2009 and the Campion LS 705i SC 2006 are built by Campion. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
