Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 vs Campion LS 705i BR 2005 — Same Brand, Different Boat

The Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 vs Campion LS 705i BR 2005 comparison sits squarely in the category of decisions where specs alone won't tell the whole story — intended use, storage, and long-term ownership costs all factor in.

On paper these two are close siblings in the size department — Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 at 26,2 ft versus Campion LS 705i BR 2005 at 24,0 ft. At 4 627 lbs and 4 627 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.

Both boats share a closely matched power ceiling — 320 hp for the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 and 320 hp for the Campion LS 705i BR 2005. 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. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 69 gal and 69 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.

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 LS 705i BR 2005 caps at 7. 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.

Bottom line: Choose the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 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 LS 705i BR 2005 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.

Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 vs Campion LS 705i BR 2005 — Common Questions

Which is the larger boat — the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 or the Campion LS 705i BR 2005?
The Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 is the longer of the two at 26,2 feet overall. The Campion LS 705i BR 2005 comes in at 24,0 feet, making it roughly 2,2 ft shorter — a meaningful difference in deck room and overall on-water presence.
Which is easier to trailer — the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 or the Campion LS 705i BR 2005?
For trailering, the Campion LS 705i BR 2005 has the edge at 4 627 lbs dry weight versus 4 627 lbs for the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011. Add a motor (typically 300–500 lbs for an outboard in this class), gear, and a partial fuel load and the difference grows. Lighter is friendlier on smaller tow vehicles and on fuel economy while hauling.
How many people can each boat hold?
The Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 is Coast Guard rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion LS 705i BR 2005 is certified for 7. Note that legal capacity and comfortable capacity aren't always the same thing — on a full day out, most experienced boaters aim for about 80% of the rated number to keep things comfortable.
Do these boats require an oversize trailer permit to tow on US highways?
Both the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 and Campion LS 705i BR 2005 share an 8 ft. 6 in. (2.59 m) beam — meaning both sit right at the 8’6" threshold that most US states use for standard-width loads. In most states you can tow at that width without a special permit, but regulations vary. Always check the rules for your state and any states you'll be passing through before your first long haul.
How do the fuel tanks compare on the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 and Campion LS 705i BR 2005?
Both boats carry similar fuel loads — 69 gallons and 69 gallons respectively. Range will depend heavily on motor choice, throttle usage, and whether you're on flat lake water or coastal chop.
Are the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 and Campion LS 705i BR 2005 from the same manufacturer?
Yes — both the Campion Allante 705i BR 2011 and the Campion LS 705i BR 2005 are built by Campion. That means shared dealer networks, common parts availability, and consistent build quality across the line. The choice between them is essentially a question of how much boat you need, not which brand you trust.
