Matching a tunnel Campion Infinyte i3 2013 against a modified vee Campion LX 825 MC 2009 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 LX 825 MC 2009 measures 27,0 feet overall (2009), giving it roughly 15,0 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 LX 825 MC 2009 tips the scales at 8 422 lbs — 8 404 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 425 hp, the Campion LX 825 MC 2009 has a 415-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 LX 825 MC 2009 is rated for 12 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 LX 825 MC 2009 could be the deciding factor.
