The Campion 682i SC 2005 vs Campion Chase 600ob BR 2012 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Campion 682i SC 2005 measures 22,0 feet overall (2005), giving it roughly 20,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion Chase 600ob BR 2012 at 2,0 feet (2012). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Chase 600ob BR 2012 tips the scales at 2 346 lbs — 1 889 lbs less than the Campion 682i SC 2005 at 457 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 682i SC 2005 and 300 hp for the Campion Chase 600ob BR 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 682i SC 2005 carries 104 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Campion Chase 600ob BR 2012. 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 682i SC 2005 is rated for 6 passengers, while the Campion Chase 600ob BR 2012 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion 682i SC 2005 could be the deciding factor.
