Matching a modified vee Campion Chase 650i SC 2011 against a deep vee Campion Explorer 682i SC 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 Chase 650i SC 2011 at 23,1 ft versus Campion Explorer 682i SC 2013 at 25,7 ft. At 421 lbs and 457 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.
The power gap is worth calling out. Rated to 375 hp, the Campion Chase 650i SC 2011 has a 55-hp advantage over the Campion Explorer 682i SC 2013'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 682i SC 2013 carries 104 gallons versus 56 gallons in the Campion Chase 650i 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 650i SC 2011 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 682i SC 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 650i SC 2011 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion Chase 650i SC 2011 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 23,1 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion Explorer 682i SC 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 1 that costs less to run day-to-day.
