Matching a modified vee Campion Allante 705i SC 2010 against a deep vee Campion Chase 800i 2013 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 SC 2010 at 26,2 ft versus Campion Chase 800i 2013 at 28,2 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Chase 800i 2013 tips the scales at 4 855 lbs — 4 400 lbs less than the Campion Allante 705i SC 2010 at 455 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 525 hp, the Campion Chase 800i 2013 has a 205-hp advantage over the Campion Allante 705i SC 2010's 320-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 705i SC 2010 carries 69 gallons versus 63 gallons in the Campion Chase 800i 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 SC 2010 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion Chase 800i 2013 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 SC 2010 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion Allante 705i SC 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 Chase 800i 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
