Matching a modified vee Campion Allante 705i BR 2010 against a deep vee Campion Explorer 682i SC 2012 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 705i BR 2010 at 26,2 ft versus Campion Explorer 682i SC 2012 at 25,7 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Allante 705i BR 2010 tips the scales at 4 627 lbs — 4 170 lbs more than the Campion Explorer 682i SC 2012 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 Allante 705i BR 2010 and 320 hp for the Campion Explorer 682i SC 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 Explorer 682i SC 2012 carries 104 gallons versus 69 gallons in the Campion Allante 705i BR 2010. 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 705i BR 2010 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 682i SC 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 Allante 705i BR 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion Allante 705i BR 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 26,2 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion Explorer 682i SC 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
