Matching a modified vee Campion Chase 600i SC 2011 against a deep vee Campion Explorer 822 BRA 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.

Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Campion Explorer 822 BRA 2013 measures 30,3 feet overall (2013), giving it roughly 8,8 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion Chase 600i SC 2011 at 21,5 feet (2011). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion Explorer 822 BRA 2013 tips the scales at 7 877 lbs — 7 843 lbs less than the Campion Chase 600i SC 2011 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 350 hp, the Campion Explorer 822 BRA 2013 has a 30-hp advantage over the Campion Chase 600i SC 2011'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 Explorer 822 BRA 2013 carries 147 gallons versus 47 gallons in the Campion Chase 600i SC 2011. 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 Chase 600i SC 2011 is rated for 7 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 822 BRA 2013 caps at 1. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion Chase 600i SC 2011 could be the deciding factor.
