Detailed Evaluation & Buyer Recommendation
Campion Chase 700i BR 2010 vs Campion LS 705i BR 2005 — Same Brand, Different Boat
The Campion Chase 700i BR 2010 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 Chase 700i BR 2010 at 26,2 ft versus Campion LS 705i BR 2005 at 24,0 ft. Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion LS 705i BR 2005 tips the scales at 4 627 lbs — 4 172 lbs less than the Campion Chase 700i BR 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 425 hp, the Campion Chase 700i BR 2010 has a 105-hp advantage over the Campion LS 705i BR 2005's 320-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load. Both carry nearly identical fuel loads — 69 gal and 69 gal — so range won't be a tiebreaker here.
Both boats are rated for 7 passengers — a good fit for a family of four or five plus guests. Comfort at capacity is another matter; the longer hull typically means more seat options and better weight distribution.
Bottom line: The Campion Chase 700i BR 2010 at 26,2 ft is the right call if deck space, comfort, and entertaining are top of your list. The Campion LS 705i BR 2005 at 24,0 ft wins on trailering ease, likely lower purchase price, and simpler docking — a solid choice for a buyer who wants more boat for less money.
