The Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 is a modified-V design and the Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013 is a deep-V design, so you're likely deciding between two noticeably 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 705i BR 2011 measures 26,2 feet overall (2011), giving it roughly 3,1 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013 at 23,1 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 tips the scales at 4 627 lbs - 727 lbs more than the Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013 at 3 900 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 2011 and 320 hp for the Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013. 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 Allante 705i BR 2011 carries 69 gallons versus 60 gallons in the Campion Explorer 602i SC 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 705i BR 2011 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 602i SC 2013 caps at 6. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 could be the deciding factor.
