The Campion Infinyte i3 2013 vs Campion LS 645i BR 2008 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.
Size is the most obvious dividing line here. The Campion LS 645i BR 2008 measures 23,0 feet overall (2008), giving it roughly 11,0 additional feet of deck space compared to the Campion Infinyte i3 2013 at 12,0 feet (2013). Weight tells a clearer story for trailering families: the Campion LS 645i BR 2008 tips the scales at 4 037 lbs — 4 019 lbs less than the Campion Infinyte i3 2013 at 18 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 320 hp, the Campion LS 645i BR 2008 has a 310-hp advantage over the Campion Infinyte i3 2013's 10-hp ceiling — enough to notice on acceleration and at cruising speed, particularly with a full passenger load.
For family outings this is probably the sharpest distinction between the two. The Campion LS 645i BR 2008 is rated for 9 passengers, while the Campion Infinyte i3 2013 caps at 3. If you're regularly pulling extended family or a group of friends onto the water, the extra seats on the Campion LS 645i BR 2008 could be the deciding factor.
Bottom line: Choose the Campion LS 645i BR 2008 if your priority is putting more people on the water — it handles 9 passengers and at 23,0 ft it has the deck room to back that rating up comfortably. The Campion Infinyte i3 2013 is the smarter pick if you want a lighter, easier-to-trailer boat rated for 3 that costs less to run day-to-day.
