Matching a deep vee Campion Allante 545i 2013 against a modified vee Campion Chase 550i BR 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.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Campion Allante 545i 2013 at 20,2 ft versus Campion Chase 550i BR 2010 at 20,2 ft. At 2 886 lbs and 2 886 lbs respectively, both sit in a similar weight class — either should pair comfortably with most mid-size SUVs and half-ton trucks, though always confirm your specific tow rating with the motor added.

The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 320 hp, the Campion Chase 550i BR 2010 has a 95-hp advantage over the Campion Allante 545i 2013's 225-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 29 gal and 29 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

Both boats are rated for 7 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.
