Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2012 vs Campion Explorer 622 WA 2010 — Same Brand, Different Boat

Matching a deep vee Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2012 against a modified vee Campion Explorer 622 WA 2010 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 Explorer 602 SC BRA 2012 at 23,1 ft versus Campion Explorer 622 WA 2010 at 23,5 ft. At 247 lbs and 262 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 — 225 hp for the Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2012 and 225 hp for the Campion Explorer 622 WA 2010. 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. Fuel capacity breaks the other way: the Campion Explorer 622 WA 2010 carries 71 gallons versus 6 gallons in the Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2012. 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 Explorer 622 WA 2010 is rated for 8 passengers, while the Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2012 caps at 7. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion Explorer 622 WA 2010 could be the deciding factor.

Bottom line: Choose the Campion Explorer 622 WA 2010 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 8 passengers and at 23,5 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion Explorer 602 SC BRA 2012 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 7 that costs less to run day-to-day.
