Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Campion Allante 595i BR 2013 vs Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2011 — Same Brand, Different Boat
Matching a deep vee Campion Allante 595i BR 2013 against a modified vee Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2011 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 595i BR 2013 at 21,5 ft versus Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2011 at 23,1 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2011 tips the scales at 247 lbs — 213 lbs less than the Campion Allante 595i BR 2013 at 34 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 Allante 595i BR 2013 has a 95-hp advantage over the Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2011's 225-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 595i BR 2013 carries 47 gallons versus 6 gallons in the Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2011. On a lake day that's negligible, but for coastal cruising or long reservoir runs the extra range matters.
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.
Bottom line: Performance buyers should lean toward the Campion Allante 595i BR 2013 and its 320-hp ceiling. If fuel economy and quieter running matter more than top-end speed, the Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2011 with its 225-hp rating is the more economical daily driver.
