Matching a deep vee Campion Allante 535i 2013 against a modified vee Campion Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010 means you're likely deciding between two genuinely different on-water experiences. Hull type shapes everything from ride quality and fuel burn to dock handling and resale trajectory.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Campion Allante 535i 2013 measures 17,8 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 14,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010 at 3,0 feet (2010). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010 tips the scales at 1 046 lbs — 1 022 lbs less than the Campion Allante 535i 2013 at 24 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 640 hp, the Campion Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010 has a 490-hp advantage over the Campion Allante 535i 2013's 150-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 Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010 carries 111 gallons versus 24 gallons in the Campion Allante 535i 2013. 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 Allante 535i 2013 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Campion Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion Allante 535i 2013 could be the deciding factor.
At this size, power-to-weight ratio matters more than outright horsepower. The Campion Allante 535i 2013 comes in at 0 lbs per hp versus 2 lbs per hp for the Campion Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010. The lower the ratio the more explosive the acceleration — meaningful on a short RIB where bursts of speed, quick planing, and agility in surf or tight waterways define the experience.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion Allante 535i 2013 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 7 passengers and at 17,8 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion Allante LX 925 Mid Cabin 2010 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
