Pathfinder 23 HPS
 

Does anyone have experience with Pathfinder's new 23' HPS?

They mention that the boat was built specifically around Yamaha's Super High Output (SHO), but also show it on the website with the new Yamaha 300 4-stroke. Was wondering if anyone has any performance numbers on either setup too...

Here's some pictures...

Skip lyshon says 70+ with a T top, i'm guessing that's with the v sho

for the 60K pricetag it better be top notch

Purty but $$$$

dang, thats nicer than my pirogue...

I saw an article in a boating magazine last week. 65 mph.
Draws 10 to 12 inches.
I did see it was built specifically for the new Yamaha.
I like it, but I don't like the price.
I can get a good used 34 ft. sportfisher with twin diesels for less than that.

chris coulter claims his 24HO's will do 70 loaded with a 300, plus his rigs are 20K cheaper and probably ride as good or better.

70k for a bay boat is insane

I'll wait for some rich dude to buy one. Then sell it after 5 years of not using it.

Looks narrow to me? Lotta money.

How much do the Lake & Bays run compared to these?

So a 24 Haynie HO with a 300 runs about 40k?

The 21 Haynie with a 225 runs around $36K.

Any boat over $50k for me better have a comfortable bed, generator, and a very cold air conditioner!

I got one for under $20K with all that.

stepped hull and transom kind of look like the yellowfin

should be about 8'6'' wide

Then it wouldn't ride as good as it does.....wide boats go shallower bit ride worse......they found a happy medium....

you were close.... 8'4"

that chick's thighs look toned :D

same here!:*****:

The 23' & 24' Haynie only has a 53 gallon fuel tank from what the internet shows. Seems like these boats would hold more fuel then what they do, but I guess if they are getting the fuel mileage that they say they are you really don't need much more. I would really like to see about 75 gallons of fuel on a boat this size.

The less weight a boat has, the better. In my opinion.
More weight, less speed, more draft.
Also the Extreme is a low boat, they can't put as tall of a tank under the deck.
I have a 60 gallon tank in my 19 ft. boat. I like that in a way, I don't have to fill up as often,
but it is slower to get on plane when full. It's like having 2 extra Jordans in the boat, weight wise.

pretty darn nice boat! I like that 23ft cape bay too tho. That thing is smooth looking!

I can run a long way on my 60 gals.

I hold 80 gallons.....man does That hurt the pocket book!!!

It don't hold any right now! Lol Hurry up and get that thing fixed!!!

yes and close to the same $ I would assume.

is there anyone selling Haynie in La. now?

yeah in Sulphur... Chris's Marine

I feel your pain Dink mine holds the same
