Nice video, thanks. Actually the two boats have only roughly half a meter difference in hull length. But this and the 26cm beam length make a huge difference in the overnighting comfort, I believe. I also find another important difference, on the basis of the technical data and if my back of the envelope calculations are correct, the 795 should have substantially higher mileage range with one fill-up.

In the UK and much of the EU a big difference is you can trailer the 695 on a basic car licence, but the 795 just hits the threshold of needing a HGV (Heavy Good Vehicle) licence. It's why the 7m versions of boats (and the Antares 7, Parker 700) or the smaller versions are so incredibly popular in Europe. If you're not trailering but leaving dockside, dock rack, or you're trailering in a country where it's legal (I've heard some parts of US, Canada, Australia) the larger versions offer SO much more.
