Both the Campion 682i SC 2009 and the Campion Explorer 682i SC BRA 2010 are modified-V designs, both built in fibreglass, so the buying decision usually comes down to a handful of practical questions: how many people are you putting on the water, how far do you trailer, and what does your tow vehicle weigh?
On paper these two are close siblings in the size department - Campion 682i SC 2009 at 25,0 ft versus Campion Explorer 682i SC BRA 2010 at 25,7 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion 682i SC 2009 tips the scales at 4 570 lbs - 930 lbs more than the Campion Explorer 682i SC BRA 2010 at 3 640 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 682i SC 2009 has a 70-hp advantage over the Campion Explorer 682i SC BRA 2010's 250-hp ceiling - enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads - 104 gal and 104 gal - so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Campion 682i SC 2009 is rated for 10 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 682i SC BRA 2010 caps at 9. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion 682i SC 2009 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion 682i SC 2009 if your priority is putting more people on the water - it handles 10 passengers and at 25,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion Explorer 682i SC BRA 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 9 that costs less to run day-to-day.
